Ice cream will maintain steady sales over the forecast period, albeit at relatively low levels. This performance will be supported by baseline demand and enhanced by the ongoing new product developments expected in the category.
In a cross-category trend, globally-strong brands in Mexico are expected to bring digital and technological advancements to help reshape product innovation, manufacturing, and distribution. For example, as seen with Mondelez International Inc (GBO), whose global food scientists use an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool to create recipes by specifying desired characteristics, including flavour, aroma, and appearance.
In a further cross-category trend, sales of ice cream could also be impacted by the junk food ban in schools. In March 2025, Mexico enacted a nationwide ban on the sale of junk food in schools, targeting ultra-processed products high in sugars, fats, and sodium.
