Maximum value without sacrificing taste
Component content

85% of consumers say the cost of living crisis has affected how they buy and consume food.

As consumers tighten their belts, they’re looking for products that offer maximum value without sacrificing taste. Fortunately, we provide a variety of solutions to help you innovate iconic products – like ready meals, crisps and baked goods – so you can offer your customers memorable food experiences, while keeping your costs – and theirs – in check. The key is understanding how consumers’ needs are evolving.
