This convergence creates new opportunities and challenges for today’s food, beverage and supplement companies to connect and to engage.

The Global Trend Study has been conducted every 2 years since 1990 in over 40 countries around the world, this is an unparalleled in-depth survey of consumers and their attitudes and behaviors around food, health and wellness.
