Elimination has evolved into moderation and it’s a preview of how changing consumer preferences affect year-round demand for alcohol and non-alcohol brands alike.

Consumers are looking to improve their physical and emotional health through what they eat and drink, driving demand for functional ingredients such as fiber or adaptogens.

Alison Payne, CMO for parent company Heineken USA, explains how the iconic character is being reimagined for the social-digital world.

The kefir maker is capitalizing on demand for premium butters, while Horizon Organic splashes into the fast-growing creamer category.

The canned fruit and vegetable company sold a portion of its assets to the fresh banana and pineapple giant with a similar name for $285 million.

Bel US will leverage Foodberry’s plant-based coatings to develop new products that prioritize nutrition and convenience, beginning with a protein and fruit snack.

The acquisition gives the produce giant a path to enter the ready-made guacamole market and expand its portfolio to include tomatoes and papayas.

While the category is gaining market share with fresh flavors and ideas, competition from other beverages is cutting into sales.

Sparkling beverages broaden the company’s ambitions to bring protein to new channels as the alternative meat category struggles.

Companies are still pursuing sustainable packaging strategies even though they’ve toned down public messaging about it, according to a report.
