Beyond targeting taste buds with flavor innovation, updating product assortments with unique product formats is another key way to attract shoppers. Sphere or ball-shaped foods 🍡 is one trend in particular gaining traction. We’re seeing the explosion of this format within snacking, frozen, candy, and much, much more. With 67% of shoppers looking for smaller on-the-go snacks, the sphere-shaped format helps meet consumer demands for convenient innovation. (Harman Snack Pack Trends & Occasions, 2023) Reach out to hello@daymon.com if interested in more insights from our 2024 Future of Format Report. #Daymon #PrivateBrands #Innovation #Format

As BBQ's, family get-togethers, and Fourth of July parties commence, frozen foods ❄ step in to provide the better overall value shoppers seek to support these occasions - from frozen meats to sides and dessert novelties. According to Chelsey Capps, "'It’s really important for retailers to create custom strategies for their private-brand programs. For some, it would behoove them to go after some of these larger pack sizes. This could prevent a larger family going from one store to another store, simply because one store doesn’t have larger-sized items that offer a greater value.’” Continue reading in Progressive Grocer for addition frozen insights ➡ https://lnkd.in/e-UJRNMP #Daymon #PrivateBrands #Frozen #Value

Another Summer Fancy Food Show in the books! 🍉📕 The event was jam-packed with the latest food and beverage trends from around the world. Sarah Diamond from our Thought Leadership team attended the event and was blown away by the sheer magnitude of creativity at this year’s show. “There wasn’t a single booth I stopped at that was one-dimensional,” shared Sarah. “The fusion of trends was clearly visible. Fruity beverages were not only sweet, but also free from artificial flavors, low calorie, and targeted to enhance gut health. Many snacks were not only gluten-free but also vegan. Most importantly, they tasted AMAZING and came in new formats." “In today’s marketplace, you need to listen to the rising needs of consumers across multiple touch points, while ensuring products still taste good—and the exhibitions at this year’s event clearly understood the assignment." While bold flavors proliferated throughout the show, other top trends include: 🌱Functional Wellness—Pre/pro biotics, botanicals & adaptogens, plant-powered energy 🍐Authenticity on the Rise—Real flavor & ingredients, brand diversity callouts, single origin 🔴Bold New Formats—Sphere shapes, freeze-dried, mouth melts, powders, snacking kits 🍝Dietary Support—Gluten-free ingredients like buckwheat, vegan sauces & dips We can’t wait to continue tracking these trends and implementing them across the #PrivateBrand industry. #Daymon #FancyFoodShow #WeSoFancy

Alongside 70,000 teammates, we share our talents and intersectional perspectives to connect people, win hearts and fill carts — leading purposefully to enrich lives along the way. We chose Advantage because this company employs teammates of all backgrounds and experiences, and we provide a path for each to grow in a way that helps them achieve their personal and professional dreams. We care about what people do -- and importantly – we care about what we can help them become. We remain dedicated to this important work. We’re making bigger investments to evolve our employee experience and create a more equitable workplace where people know they’re safe, they belong and they can grow.
