1 – Latest meat alternative and meat market insight

Starting the day off, Steph Cullen, head of CPG at Circana, will give a detailed overview of how the plant-based meat alternative market is performing, what’s selling and what’s not selling so well.

Cullen will also delve into wider protein trends, looking at what’s occurring in ‘real’ meat and what trajectory the two markets are on.

2 – How to dominate the alternative meat market

The original mass-market meat alternative, Quorn, has not only stood the test of time on international supermarket shelves, but it has also evolved as times and tastes have changed.

Quorn arguably began to hit its stride in the run up to the decade as more consumers turned to meat alternatives.

What it takes to remain a big name in a growing market is one of the key questions answered by Quorn.

3 – What did alt meat brands do to stay relevant in a market downturn?

While the decline in alt meat sales might be in reverse, vital lessons have been learned from those continueing to thrive.

Protein Vision’s panel of meat alternative experts – from leading global brands – will take to the virtual stage to give their insight on how their businesses pivoted and why others didn’t do enough.
