One of the key factors driving the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth is the active participation of banks in employee benefit solutions. Employee benefits are referred to as employment perks offered by employers to their employees during their service tenure. In addition, employers partner with third-party providers of products and services, which can provide specialized benefit plans to their employees so that both employees and employers can save on taxes.
For instance, Sodexo SA partnered with VR Beneficios, a Brazilian leader in meal and food vouchers, on a joint venture to meet the product requirements in the agreement. In addition, many corporates have permanent accounts with banks, and avail of services from their banks helps them manage employee benefits and meal vouchers more efficiently. Hence, such factors are driving the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth during the forecast period.
A key factor shaping the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth is the strategic partnerships between the market and meal kit delivery companies. The global meal kit delivery service market is growing at a tremendous rate, which can eventually affect the dine-in restaurant business. In addition, along with convenience, consumers look for sustainably sourced food at affordable prices.
Moreover, meal kit delivery services offer enhanced convenience, as consumers do not have to buy groceries, which, in turn, saves the time taken in preparing food. In addition, these services also encourage people to venture outside of their comfort zones in terms of ingredients and preparation techniques. Furthermore, companies ensure that meal kits provided to consumers have easy-to-follow recipes, cooking tips, as well as the exact amount of ingredients required to prepare a meal in a convenient, pre-packaged box. Hence, such factors are driving the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth during the forecast period.
Alternative ways to save on tax are one of the key challenges hindering the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth. In several countries, meal vouchers and other employee benefits offered by employers to their employees help the latter save on taxes. However, there has been a growing awareness about other tax-saving investment tools. For example, in Brazil, people can save on tax by investing through the Brazilian Private Pension Plan contributions or by showing educational expenses.
Moreover, in Brazil, there are two meal ticket programs, namely Vale-Alimentaco and Vale-Refeicao, which, whenever granted by the employer and not discounted from the wage of the worker, is considered part of the employee's salary for all tax purposes. Hence, such factors are negatively impacting the Brazil - meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market. Therefore, it is expected to hinder the Brazil meal vouchers and employee benefit solutions market growth during the forecast period.
