New Research Reveals Increase in NPD and Innovation for Food Brands Despite Outdated Internal Manual Processes, Rising Costs and Ingredient Sourcing Bottlenecks
Amid signs of progress after a few challenging years for the food and beverage supply chain, brands are planning to dial up product innovation efforts to meet consumer demand (42%), combat rising costs (46%), and stay competitive (51%). Even with their enthusiasm, however, 56% of brands reported a lack of internal tools to manage product formulations and recipes, highlighting a clear need for solutions to help automate and streamline work.
Other key findings from TraceGains' latest report include:
"Our research reveals a clear imperative for brands to invest in product innovation as numerous transformative shifts coalesce across the industry forcing them to act," said Paul Bradley , Senior Director, Product Marketing. "While it's evident that brands require robust tools and solutions to navigate these challenges, a significant gap still exists in internal resources that may hinder their progress. At TraceGains, we're committed to empowering brands with the technology and insights needed to thrive in this fast-moving industry."
