New specialist supplier event launches in London
Specialist food and drink brands from across the world attended the “Megatrends” networking event last night in central London, the first in a planned series of events aimed a showcasing the most innovative suppliers in the UK.
Sponsors included RDA Organic, the Almond Board of California, Antony Worrall Thompson's new food range, Extraordinary Food, Porter Foods, WineList and Wyke Farms. Products that were demonstrated included smoothies from RDA Organic containing a newly discovered “superfood”, reduced-salt spread “Toastmate” from Antony Worrall Thompson's range and “Sublimelle” wines created specifically for the female palate from WineList.
All the companies showcased share common values, based on the three “megatrends” currently influencing new product development, marketing and branding in the food and drink industry; “health, convenience and indulgence”.
Built on the back of the growing demand for organic and ethical produce, the event is the first of its kind to bring small to medium-sized food and drink companies sharing these values together with other food producers, retailers and manufacturers on a one-to-one basis.
