Food is a crucial part of our lives: it not only feeds us and delivers valuable nutrients to our bodies, but is also a source of pleasure, business and various challenges. It is now one of the most important topics of governing authorities and international organizations.
In our TREND BOOK you will find the following trends. They reflect the change that has been affecting (or is starting to affect) various aspects of food: from production, consumption, to the lifestyle that comes with eating habits or technology changes that slowly affect all of those.
And while some of them focus on the Polish market, most of them can be aligned with the global movements. And so – the trends take from what’s now to take a look into the future – hopefully in a format that is easy to digest. Bon Appetit!
