with the most potential to impact future trends.
New ingredients, concepts and preparation methods for more health benefits will emerge.
Flavor authenticity, innovation or in some cases flavor novelty will be a strong driver
for new product development.

craft beer sales from 2007
to 2011 indicates that
mainstream beer is
also losing share to
crafted beers.
Small companies, big ideas
New healthy concept:
½ veg & ½ fruit
An important marketing strategy for
the success of small companies is a
fun or inspiring personal story of
how they came up with their
product idea. It establishes the
brand as small and honest
and creates an emotional
connection to the consumer.

“New” superfoods
•
•
•
Regulatory pressure is leading to an increased focus on fruits and vegetables,
due to the global obesity epidemic.
Previously forgotten vegetables and alternative grains will be applied in a wide
range of products to convey more old fashioned health and nutrition.
Marketing fruit & vegetables’ natural health attributes as far as vitamins and
minerals are concerned will become more pronounced.
A blast from the past:

parsnips, artichokes,
kale, salsify, freekeh
and chia are being

Well-known brands will venture into previously unconsidered categories.
Cross-branding will become more prevalent to capitalize on brands’ popularity and as a
means to further reinforce brands in the consumer mindset.
New flavors, textures and delivery methods will continue to excite from an innovation
perspective.
Limited edition innovation should increase as companies test the market to see if new
concepts are worth pursuing.

The addition of protein sends subliminal weight management messaging due to
its satiety attributes. This marketing platform will continue to offer added value.
More male specific marketing will emerge for mainstream protein products.

Trend 9: New stealth strategies

New stealth strategies
•
•
•
The fat, sugar and salt content of products will continue to decrease,
but most manufacturers will choose to not actively market this.
The US demonization of trans fats will lead to the disappearance of
partially hydrogenated fats altogether.
Industry pledges will continue to evolve. Some companies will set their
own targets in order to gain the perception of being socially responsible.

Alternative alternatives

Consumers are expecting more choice to the dairy alternative mainstay soy.
New product categories such as kogurt (coconut milk yogurt) have emerged.
This will continue as a result of on-going “free from” new product development.
Nut and grain milks satisfy other health trends such as “The protein horizon”
and “New superfoods.”
As gluten free options continue to expand, so too are the possibilities for
wheat replacement. Improvements are being made in texture and taste.
