The fundamental change in the European non-alcoholic beverage market

, 20 August 2020/in E-News /by 3wmedia

In recent years, the Western European market for non-alcoholic beverages (NARTD) has hardly grown in volume, while the number of brands, flavours, and product extensions has grown dramatically. The RaboResearch report ‘With a Little Help from My (Bottling) Friends: Changing Production Footprints as SKU Numbers Rise” explains how this fundamental change will require companies to adjust their business models.
NARTD consumption in Western Europe has been static in recent years. At the same time, brands have shifted from producing a small range of large stock-keeping units (SKUs) to a large number of smaller SKUs. This complexity is set to increase further, even though growth in SKUs will not be infinite and will slow down in the future.
Many brand owners have not yet fully adjusted their operations footprint to the new landscape. As changeovers on production lines cost a lot of time, brand owners should reconsider their production model. The logical result will probably be additional consolidation among established bottling networks, along with a growing role for larger, full-service contract manufacturers.
“The recently observed consolidation in the Coca-Cola bottling landscape and the acquisitions made by Refresco in North America are indications of things to come,” according to Francois Sonneville, Senior Analyst – Beverages. “Although we expect some small, efficient toll manufacturers to survive in the near term, we believe they will eventually need to decide if they want to be consolidators or be acquired.”

Safety of glutamates added to food reviewed

, 20 August 2020/in E-News /by 3wmedia

EFSA has established a safe intake level for glutamic acid and glutamates used as food additives after re-evaluating their safety. The Authority also concluded that estimated dietary exposure to glutamic acid and glutamates may exceed not only the safe level but also doses associated with adverse effects in humans for some population groups. On this basis, EFSA’s experts recommend reviewing the maximum permitted levels for these food additives.

Unique research facility for quality control of fresh produce

, 20 August 2020/in E-News /by 3wmedia

Wageningen Food & Biobased Research opened its new research facility for quality control in the fruit, vegetable and flower sector on October 6, 2017. The facility brings together knowledge and expertise in post-harvest technology and agro-food robotics. Worldwide, the need for quality conservation is growing: companies can keep their products fresher and reduce food waste using insights obtained at Wageningen.
“Companies benefit from a sustainable chain in which quality during storage, transportation and at point-of-sale is optimally controlled. Food losses are reduced and the availability and volume of quality food for the global population increases. Companies also enjoy a stronger international market position”, says Raoul Bino, General Director of the Agrotechnology & Food Sciences Group at Wageningen University & Research.
To achieve global sustainable growth in fresh chains a multidisciplinary approach is needed. In this renewed, modern research facility, expertise in the physiology, quality and shelf life of fresh products is combined with robotics and vision technologies. Research outcomes are translated, by Wageningen experts and companies in the chain, into methods that quickly, objectively and accurately measure product quality.
During the opening, on October 6th, Wageningen experts gave demonstrations around various themes. Circa 100 clients of WUR looked inside diverse research areas. These include the ATP Test Station, where cooling vehicles are tested under extreme climatic conditions from -20º to +50º Celsius; special packaging areas, and a large number of individually-adjustable mini-climate cells. There are also special areas for robotics and vision research where experts are developing new methods for extremely rapid, objective and accurate quality control.
Wageningen Food & Biobased Research has been researching the quality of fresh vegetables, fruits and cut flowers for more than 80 years – both nationally and internationally. For example, it is Wageningen experts who coordinate the GreenCHAINge Fruit & Vegetables research programme. The goal of this particular programme is to create smart chains that, via improved quality control, enable manufacturers to deliver top quality fruit and vegetables throughout the year. Wageningen’s research constantly facilitates unique innovations. An example is Cool – Research On The Move. This unique concept is a cooperation between Wageningen Food & Biobased Research and Fotein, in which knowledge and technology in the field of postharvest technology have been combined in a mobile research facility. This mobile research facility allows companies and governments, in emerging countries, to significantly increase the quality and shelf life of their products, expanding existing markets and creating new ones.
