Ausgabe zur ANUGA 2019

Ausg.Nr._15/2019 5 Anuga 2019 W hat is coming, what is staying and what is new? The entire diver- sity of the world of food and bever- ages will be on display again from 5 to 9 October 2019 in Cologne. Whether vegetarian and vegan, gluten and lactose-free, super- foods or ready-to-go products - there is something for all needs. Around 7,400 exhibitors from 100 countries are using the world's most important industry meeting for the food and beverage indus- try to present their latest trends and innovations. The trend themes reflect the current developments within the industry. Beyond this, Anuga places a consistent focus on the industry trends of the future. In addition to diversity and inter- nationality, the "10 trade shows under one roof" trade fair concept, offers top buyers from all over the world also a close interlinking with the respective trend themes. The clear structure divided up into industry-specific segments en- sures a good orientation. Each of the individual trade shows is unique in itself and in some cases also the leaders of their segment. The following trends will play a key role at Anuga 2019 (Source: Innova Market Insights). Functional and free fromproducts "Free-from" is becoming an in- creasinglymore popular category. In 2018, 23% of all new foods car- ried a "free-from" notice. Gluten- free products stand out within this group. In term of regions, Europe ranks first in terms of introducing new free-from products, whereas in North America compared to Europe just under half as many new products of this category are introduced. Halal Food Halal-certified food that corre- sponds to the Islamic dietary rules, is gaining significance. The increas- ing demand for halal ready-made products in the Near East, com- bined with the growing demand in the West, is leading to a strong growth in the segment of halal- certified food. The introduction of new halal products lies at a stable average annual growth of 10.7% worldwide. Kosher Products The demand for kosher products is increasingly strongly. The distri- bution of these foodstuffs, which correspond with the Jewish dietary rules, is increasing according to data provided by Innova Market Insights on pro-duct introductions. Most kosher notices are found on the main categories bakery products, sauces and spices as well as snacks. Non-GMO Products In 2018, over 5% of the newly in- troduced products worldwide car- ried a "non-GMO" notice, which corresponds to an average annual growth of 14% since 2014. Over the past years, North America has taken over from Europe as the leading market region for "non- GMO" notices. Organic Products The percentage of new pro- ducts that fall under the organic segment grew from 8.8% of the new introductions in 2014 up to 10.5% in 2018. At Anuga Organic and the Anuga Organic Market the trade visitors will find a wide range of organic products from Germany and abroad with a clear focus on export. Products with protected designation of origin The interest in and awareness about the origin of their food- stuffs is being expressed by the fact that the consumers want to know how their food is produced, where exactly it comes from and which quality the ingredients have. Locally and regionally pro- duced foods appear to be more trustworthy to the consumers. Ready-to-eat Products Traditional meal times and situa- tions are becoming less and less common and the consumers are looking for fast, convenient and yet nevertheless healthy solutions that suit their busy lifestyles better. Consumers are increasingly look- ing for healthy, tasty to-go snacks in practical packing. For snacks the priority lies on the sense of taste and authentic aromas, whilst the demand for global aromas is increasing fast. Superfoods Foodstuffs that are of especially favourable nutritional value can be classified as superfoods. These are nutritious foodstuffs that have a special added value for the health and well-being. Products based on fair trade Fairtrade focuses on the inter- national development, social equity and fair economic profits. Sweets and hot drinks are the two main categories for the Fairtrade certification.  Text: Koelnmesse GmbH Messeplatz 1 D-50679 Köln 11 Themes set the trend at Anuga 2019 NEW • King Coconut Water • Coco Juices • Ice Teas • Coconut Products • Jams & Chutneys • Fruit Purees • Tamarind paste • Blossomwaters • Dips COSMOVEDA OUR TROPICAL FINE FOOD RANGE True Goodness – Just for You A delicious range, produced in Sri Lanka Delivery directly from our production in Sri Lanka or via our warehouse in Germany COSMOVEDA Adalbertstr. 5-8 10999 Berlin Phone +49 (0) 30 46 796 560 Mail service@cosmoveda.de Web www.finefoods.cosmoveda.de Visit us on the Anuga Organic Market Hall 5.1 | E001/F001 In 2019, Anuga is celebrating its 100th anniversary
