Every day there is more information available that influences how consumers not only think about how their food affects them, but where it is coming from and how it can be improved. As their attitudes shift, their demands become stronger on the food retail industry to become more transparent, organic and digitally integrated.
METTLER TOLEDO explores these shifts, and how they are impacting every area inside and outside the store. There is new technology not only in the stores themselves, but in where the food is coming from as well. This webinar looks at how the industry is changing, why it is changing, and where it might be going in the future.
The following topics are discussed in this webinar:
โข A look at the Consumer Landscape
โข The Food Retail Industry Response
โข More Mindful Eating and Awareness
โข New Technologies In and Out of Stores
