This year’s Free From Functional Food Expo examines the future of Free From, Vegan, Organic and Functional Food. Mintel is once again partnering with the show to deliver the most relevant content to shed light on the future of free from diets and the challenges the food and drink industry face when complying with the clean label trend.

Our presentations

Emma Schofield, Global Food & Drink Analyst will present at the Free From Conference Theatre on the following topics:

The future of clean label for food, drink and ingredient producers

This presentation offers a snapshot into which ingredients are incompatible with consumers aspirations for clean label food and drink, and which ingredients can the food industry use to replace these ingredients that consumers are keen to avoid. Clean Label continues to evolve, and means different things to different consumers, in different regions and in different categories. This presentation covers the top key clean label ingredient trends that the food industry will face in future years.

Tuesday, 28th, 11:00 – 11:25 am

The future of free from diet trends

Which free from diets may emerge and grow in the future, such as FODMAP dieting, and what are the trends in more established types of free from diet such as gluten free or dairy free. Discover the key trends in free from dieting, and what consumers think about free from food and drink products. What opportunities and risks do free from diets and free from products bring to the food industry?

Wednesday, 29th, 12:30 – 12:55 pm
