The Context

Why this conversation matters now

The growing adoption of GLP-1 medications is reshaping food consumption patterns and changing what consumers expect from food products. Smaller portions, higher protein intake, and evolving nutritional needs are challenging traditional product and portfolio strategies.

For food manufacturers, retailers, foodservice operators, and ingredient suppliers, the shift calls for a closer look at changing demand and emerging category opportunities. Companies that respond early can strengthen their market positioning and stay relevant as consumer preferences evolve.

What attendees will get

  • Understand how GLP-1 medications are influencing food consumption and purchasing behaviour.
  • Identify categories and products with emerging growth potential.
  • Explore portfolio strategies and reformulation opportunities.
  • Assess changing consumer needs around protein, nutrition, and portion sizes.
  • Understand how to prepare for the evolving food market through 2030.
