526: Imagining the food industry five years from now

Food Matters Live Podcast

Consumers are increasingly aware of their food choices and how those choices affect their health, so what will that mean for the food industry of the future?
In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, recorded live at our Tastes of Better event in Ascot in 2024, our expert panel discusses the evolving trends in the food industry.
They look to the future and contemplate where we might be heading in terms of health and sustainability, consumer behaviour towards cooking, innovations in retail, personalised nutrition, and the growing importance of allergen awareness.
