Gary Scattergood, Regional Head: APAC and Editor-in-Chief, said: “These are two of the hottest topics in the food and beverage sector today.
“In terms of Healthy Formulations, we know that consumers in APAC increasingly say they want healthier options, but equally they are not willing to compromise on flavour, texture and mouthfeel. In this edition, we'll be assessing the latest innovations across a whole host of categories, from healthy snacking to functional foods, and bakery to plant-based NPD to examine how the industry can formulate, reformulate and fortify to create better-for-you products that simultaneously appeal to the senses.
“Likewise, for Better-For-You-Beverages, from less sugar, to added functionality, and local ingredient innovation to limited editions, Asia's industry is increasingly innovating and diversifying to deliver growth. As some consumers shy away from beverages that are perceived to be unhealthy, we'll be shining the spotlight on the companies that are creating more functional products, beverages with reduced sugar, and those appealing to growing demands for natural products, as well as drinks that aid active lifestyles.
"We look forward to seeing you online!"
