Join Mintel for an exploration of the paradoxes that will influence Aussie and Kiwi consumer attitudes toward food and drink in 2025.

As consumers ourselves, we are complex beings who often act in inconsistent ways. We are capable of committing to one intention, but act in ways that clash with that intention. For example, a person might set a goal to eat more vegetables, but then pair a healthy salad with French fries…and a dessert.

We’ll delve into what these paradoxes mean for food/drink companies through our 2025 Food & Drink Trends:

  • Rule Rebellion: The rulebook on how consumers ‘should’ eat is torn up
  • Fundamentally Nutritious: Ozempic casts a new spotlight on food as medicine
  • Chain Reaction: Supply chain disruptions usher in a new era of sourcing

Consumer data/product examples from ANZ and key mentor markets will be featured throughout.

Register now to gain expert insights that will help inform your:

  • Range reviews
  • Innovation planning
  • Customer meetings
  • Competitor profiling
