  • ATTITUDES AND OPINIONS IN THE U.S. OF THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY
  • Slide 10
  • Packaged food used to be a convenience that was simply enjoyed. Now its a loaded gun. Questions and concerns have created a series of global trends that impact the reputations and bottom lines of food companies operating in an increasingly complex environment. Questions Consumers Are Asking 10

  • 11 11 Understanding The Industry and External Pressures
  • Slide 12
  • Title Needed 12 Regulators, health professionals and industry leaders have become more focused on calories from beverages and processed foods. Obesity Influences the Dialogue Conversations and content about nutrition, health and food products are amplified through the food community, creating an echo chamber. Consumers are passionate about their food choices and about the companies they buy from The Rise of the Corp-sumer Social Media is Mainstream Media
  • Slide 13
  • Title Needed 13 Old paradigm of food issues being limited to developed markets and by geographic boundaries has changed. From obesity to food ingredients, sustainability to food safety, food security to commodities pricing, food issues dominate our global and local food dialogues, and shape the way companies and industries enter new markets and do business in those markets. Creating a unique presence on the niche social networks that are important to key audiences helps build credibility and trust.

  • Slide 14
  • How Others In the Industry Are Reacting to the Landscape 14 From Candy to Innovation: With the worlds cocoa supply at risk, concentrated primarily in West Africa and susceptible to disease, and stakeholders calling for support of impoverished cocoa farmers, Mars decided to take action. In mapping the cocoa genome, Mars was seen as a leader, bringing solutions to a delicate agricultural and economic problem. Thinking Local: In the wake of a series of crises over the sourcing and ingredients of products sold in its restaurants, Yum! launched a global program that tracked and anticipated food and nutrition-related issues and influencers, leading to many of its brands announcing reformulated products based on unique market demands around the world. More than Just Coffee: While suffering declining financial returns and an increasingly competitive market, Starbucks heralded the return of CEO Howard Schultz and highlighted its deep bench of talented executives by partnering its thought leaders with select stakeholders in a series of global conversations, securing the companys corporate reputation as a leader in not just coffee, but in responsible capitalism, corporate citizenship and sustainability. Healthy Food Initiative: After successfully demonstrating that sustainable products should not and do not need to cost more for its customers, Walmart brought those same principles to healthy foods. Declaring that no family should ever have to make a choice between foods they can afford and foods that are good for them, Walmart announced a program with Michelle Obamas Lets Move! that includes working with manufacturers to reformulate packaged goods, creating its own healthy foods seal, and lowering prices on fruits and vegetables..
