Healthy body, happy mind: co-creating food experiences that foster wellbeing

New European consumer research can help deliver nourishing food experiences for every lifestyle.
Consumers’ growing interest in diet and functional foods reflects their desire to prioritise health optimisation and prevention rather than treatment.
In today’s digitally connected world, dominated by screens and steered by convenience, prioritising wellbeing can come in many forms. By understanding European consumer lifestyles, needs, and convictions, we can drive innovation that addresses the interconnected nature of mind and body.
Expectations driven by lifestyle
From sedentary to active lifestyles, no two consumers are exactly alike. Givaudan’s European proprietary segmentation research sheds light on consumer expectations based on five unique profiles.
Balancing physical and mental health can be challenging, and each profile requires a tailored and holistic solution that can fuel both body and brain.
Fulfilling European lifestyle needs with targeted food experiences
Understanding each consumer segment allows us to design food experiences that optimise the physical and mental performance of consumers throughout their day.
With the right ingredients, functional foods can support everything from cognition and energy to joint and gut health.
