From Dairy Foods to Fortune Business Insight, experts agree: the RTD dairy beverage market is on the rise. With milk, tea, coffee, aseptic juices, and bottled juices leading the charge, dollar sales are increasing year after year. While some may see a decline in unit sales, the exception lies with canned juices, whose dollar sales spiked 8.5% and unit sales saw a 2% rise. And the global market shows no signs of slowing down, projected to reach over $1 trillion by 2032 thanks to urbanization and busy lifestyles. Don't miss out on the opportunities in this growing category!" #RTDbeverages #dairy #growthopportunities

Instead of always thinking Optimum Nutrition needs to be the "clear winner" in every protein category format for Glanbia Performance Nutrition (GPN), maybe ISOPURE is the better RTD protein beverage offering to compete against the likes of market leaders…Premier Protein, Fairlife/Core Power, and Muscle Milk. But you might be wondering why hasn’t ISOPURE been successful to those massive levels yet after ~26 years in market? - packaging swap needed - marketplace timing patience needed - retail/distribution strategy shift needed - protein technology advancement needed These internal/external factors could be converging together quickly...but will Glanbia be aggressive enough to take full advantage of it? #strategy #trends #markets #fmcg #cpg #sportsnutrition #supplements #protein #beverages #innovation #nutrition #health #wellness #productdevelopment #marketing #retailing #retail #grocery #merchandising #business #businessintelligence #entrepreneurship #consultants

April is #NationalSoyFoods Month! 🌱 The Henry Ford recently added an Impossible Beef package to our collections. Patrick O. Brown founded Impossible Foods in 2011, and the company released its first Impossible Burger in 2016. Impossible Beef looks like ground beef because of a combination of processed ingredients, most derived from plants: protein from soy, flavor from heme, fat from sunflower or coconut oils, and binding agents from konjac roots and xanthan gum. Before Impossible Beef, scientists in Henry Ford’s chemical lab (now the Soybean Lab near the entrance to Greenfield Village) researched #soy oil and soy flour as an alternative protein. They did not fabricate the oil into meat, but you can read more about Paul Foster, one of the staff who worked with food research in the lab, on our blog: https://lnkd.in/gpdFvz8Q.

The #culinary world is currently experiencing a dynamic surge in "glocal" flavor innovation, seamlessly blending global and local tastes to captivate adventurous consumers, often referred to as "gastronauts." This #trend is accelerated by the pervasive influence of social media and the rapid advancements in #AI technology, facilitating the introduction of an unprecedented array of diverse #flavors. From the comforting familiarity of Sriracha to the more exotic allure of #ingredients like ube and tamarind, the palette of flavors available is expanding rapidly. Restaurants and #food manufacturers are eagerly embracing this trend, infusing their menus and products with an international flair that resonates with the increasingly cosmopolitan tastes of modern consumers. The younger generation, in particular, is driving the demand for "taste shock," characterized by daring and unexpected flavor combinations that push the boundaries of culinary creativity. This includes innovative twists on classic dishes, such as infusing Mexican sauces into modern pasta recipes or incorporating smoked, pickled, or fermented elements to elevate traditional favorites.
