"China Food & Drink Report Q2 2015" now available at Fast Market Research

Over the next five years, we see three trends in private consumption for the major emerging markets in Asia. China will see some of the fastest growth rates in the region. We forecast average annual real private consumption growth of 8.0% over the next five years. These high growth rates chime with the rebalancing of the economy towards greater private consumption and, as such, will see private consumption growth remain strong, despite our forecasts for a slowdown in the overall economy's real growth rate to below 7.0% over the coming years.

While the outlook for China's traditional economic growth drivers such as heavy industry and real estate construction remains cloudy, the outlook facing the more consumer-focussed industries is relatively strong over the medium term. Overall, though, as the traditional sectors remain the dominant drivers of the economy, we remain below consensus in our real GDP growth outlook, and caution that the inevitable bursting of the ongoing credit bubble could also serve to undermine the profitability of the consumer-focussed industries.
