1. More alike than different
Be willing to look outside of your own boundaries to see trends that may have relevance.

Think globally; act locally.
2. New ways to communicate

Shoppers are becoming more critical and are looking for expertise specificto them. “Don’t talk at; Communicate with”

Be transparent.
If you make a mistake, own up quickly and change.
Big is no longer the ideal.
Shoppers are holding manufacturers responsible.
4. Food as delivery vehicle for health
Shopper acceptance of functionality in foods and beverages is greater today than it was yesterday and will be greater tomorrow.
How far you can go depends ‐ but we should constantly push the boundaries before assuming something will not work.
Look broadly for competitive threats.

5. Easy health
Try and add functional within current shopper habits.
Look to center store.

Not always “rationale”.
Major societal issue.
Food companies must be engaged.

Opportunity trend for improved health in away from home.
At home needs to work on convenience/away from home on nutrition.
