Current Market Landscape of Ingredients

The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly influenced health, wellness and demand for sustainability, which is shaping the future of ingredients. Changes in ingredients trends are driven by the consumers’ desire for quality and functional benefits from their food that supports human and planetary health, creating space for ingredient development and opportunity.

Ingredients Market and Trends in the Next Two Years

Looking forward, the ingredients market will center on solutions that support consumers’ self-care practices and their desire for boosted nutrition while being low in fat, sugar and sodium.

In addition to being eco-friendly, sustainable proteins will need to be nutritional, cost-effective, safe and tasty.

  • 41% of Spanish consumers would like to consume a diet that reduces the risk of a lifestyle disease (e.g. Diabetes).

Ingredients Market and Trends in Five Years and Beyond

A sustainable food supply chain will be the next space where food firms will benefit from technology-driven ingredients. Technology will connect the dots from start to finish for the food and ingredients market, making better ingredient solutions to sustain the holistic needs of the global population that address food waste as well as helping to mitigate global hunger and food insecurity. Air-derived and AI-technology powered ingredients will dominate future ingredient trends as they promise to bring accessibility, health and a sensory appeal to the food market.

 

Ingredients for self-care and ‘better-for-us’ needs will future-proof food and drink in the next normal. Moving ahead, watch out for technology-driven ingredients.”

We use Mintel Reports, mostly for financial services and ecommerce markets, plus a few retail and technology ones.

It’s mostly me who uses them but if I know someone is working on something specific I will share the relevant reports.

As a leading payments provider, we value additional insights into consumer behaviour, opinions and trends that are shaping the many different markets we operate in. Mintel is a very good and very quick way for us to obtain those insights.

Working in a customer-obsessed organization means that data and insights have to be at our fingertips. Mintel’s reports help us support anecdotes with real quantifiable insights. The summary sections (which I really like) helps save time by giving a birds eye view of the content before spending time combing through the pages.

Our business review discussions are strengthened by the relevancy of the reports to help us better understand our customers. In addition, the customer service received from the team (especially in crunch periods) makes the process of understanding customer behavior even better.

“We also use Mintel to inform our thinking and reinforce strategy. If you’re presenting new ideas, it’s essential they are underpinned by robust data and evidence, and clearly rooted in fact.

Mintel gives us all that. It’s a great brand and one that is trusted by clients.”

“Mintel helps us when we want to know something quickly – it provides fast answers to our questions. If we need to get a view of what’s going on in a particular market it’s very useful.

When carrying out background research, I find Mintel an excellent starting point.

The fact that it covers so many markets is a big plus for me– instead of having to buy specialist products in each area we are interested in, especially when we only require a brief view on a particular market, we can go to Mintel for help as a one-stop shop. I find Mintel a useful and valuable resource.”
