Mintel will be at the 2018 Petfood Research and Development showcase! Our Director of Innovation and Insight, Lynn Dornblaser, will be speaking on October 10th from 11:30AM – 1:00PM on “What human food trends mean for pet treats and toppers.”  As human food goes, so goes pet food – and vice versa. What can pet treat and topper developers and producers learn from the human food industry, including health and wellness trends in addition to indulgence?

Petfood R&D Showcase is an enriching pet food event that will feature three days of exclusive networking with leading suppliers, researchers and pet food industry colleagues, plus cutting edge scientific presentations and interactive labs focusing on the use of treats, toppers and inclusions in pet food. Petfood R&D Showcase is an ideal opportunity for professionals to learn from industry experts and gain the tools and insights needed to get ahead of this future trend.
