Food ingredients-market needs

Ormandy, Roger (1995) Food ingredients-market needs. [Proceedings Paper]

To be successful food ingredients must satisfy the needs of the modern food industry but ultimately it is the consumer who has the final word. Today consumers are much more demanding and knowledgeable of the food they eat. The food industry requires speciality ingredients that are innovative, reliable, hygienic, economic and available. The consumer expects variation, value for money, convenience, high quality, nutritious and safe food. This creates a challenge for food ingredients suppliers who need to keep ahead of changing consumer patterns and lifestyles, scientific and technological developments, legislative issues and the benefits and sometimes disadvantages of global product marketing. Consumer perceptions of food ingredients are key to the successful development of the industry. Like it or not food ingredients are still food additives under a different name and we all have a responsibility to ensure consumers are not given any false impression about the products we supply or manufacture. The presentation will look at various trends and future developments in the consumer market. A particular reference to the spice and seasoning industry is included to help identify - what are the market needs?

Abstract

To be successful food ingredients must satisfy the needs of the modern food industry but ultimately it is the consumer who has the final word. Today consumers are much more demanding and knowledgeable of the food they eat. The food industry requires speciality ingredients that are innovative, reliable, hygienic, economic and available. The consumer expects variation, value for money, convenience, high quality, nutritious and safe food. This creates a challenge for food ingredients suppliers who need to keep ahead of changing consumer patterns and lifestyles, scientific and technological developments, legislative issues and the benefits and sometimes disadvantages of global product marketing. Consumer perceptions of food ingredients are key to the successful development of the industry. Like it or not food ingredients are still food additives under a different name and we all have a responsibility to ensure consumers are not given any false impression about the products we supply or manufacture. The presentation will look at various trends and future developments in the consumer market. A particular reference to the spice and seasoning industry is included to help identify - what are the market needs?
