Abstract

Food represents everyday need and from this point of view is stable and computable demand on the consumer market. Based on the current development of households’ net money income and consumption expenditures, the aim of the paper is to point at the development of food consumption and changes in the cost of living of the population in Slovakia. Previous food consumption analyses proved that eating habits of the Slovak population comply neither with healthy lifestyle nor recommended doses, due to the low level of disposable net money income. In the analysis, linear and nonlinear functions were used in order to evaluate the development and saturation of demand for basic foods in Slovakia in the period 2008–2017. During these years, the share of expenditures on food and non-alcoholic beverages did not significantly change the consumption expenditures; they moved in intervals from 19.2% (2017) to 23.1% (2013), which is still a high share in comparison with EU countries (12.2%). The analysis provided in the paper is a suitable base for food businesses to create a product portfolio based on different net money income and saturation demand for basic foods.

斯洛伐克家庭的食物消费与收入和饱和极限的关系

食品代表了日常需求，从这个角度来看，食品是消费市场上稳定的、可计算的需求。基于当前家庭的货币净收入和消费支出的发展，本文的目的是指出食品消费的发展和斯洛伐克人口生活成本的变化。先前的食品消费分析证明，由于可支配净收入水平低，斯洛伐克人口的饮食习惯既不符合健康的生活方式，也不符合建议的剂量。在分析中，使用线性和非线性函数来评估斯洛伐克2008-2017年期间基本食品需求的发展和饱和情况。在这些年中，食品和非酒精饮料的支出份额没有显著改变消费支出;他们的比例从19.2%(2017年)到23.1%(2013年)不等，与欧盟国家(12.2%)相比，这一比例仍然很高。本文提供的分析为食品企业根据不同的货币净收入和基本食品的饱和需求来创建产品组合提供了合适的基础。
