SIGHTS
We inspire, so you can see the value that Future Food has for you!
As consumers, we have gradually lost contact with the production of our food.
This leads to fear for our health and concerns about the well-being of the planet.
Today we see that science and also old techniques plays an important role in our society.
This continues in new trends such as climate-conscious foods, reducetarian eating, clean-label simplicity....
Food has become a story, an experience, a lifestyle.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
New ways of grocery shopping Following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, e-commerce saw a significant boom, and shoppers increasingly used online grocery shopping with at-home delivery as a way of getting their products home in a safe manner.In collaboration with Board of Innovation, Colruyt’s Collect&Go developed a no-walk-in grocery shopping experience for city dwellers.
New aged meat! Plant-based meat substitutes have been around for a while, with the products getting increasingly closer to ‘the real deal’ and more food producers tapping into the growing market. The next big thing may be slaughter-free meat – particularly cell-based meat, with companies like New Age Meats building on the idea that everyone should have access to real meat without having to compromise their personal economy, health, religion, or values.
New super food ingrediënts! CBD has slowly been getting more attention as an ingredient in the last few years. Today, it’s being actively used in products consumed on a daily basis. Hummus? Pesto? Why not. Themptation looks to promote the health benefits of hemp and showcase its flexibility in the food industry by introducing them as base ingredients of our day-to-day foods.
Robots getting busy! Well, particularly one. Heineken came up with B.O.T, a short name for what they presented as a beer outdoor transporter. AI technology development spreads increasingly to different aspects of our life. Including how we consume. This little beer Wall-E is an example of the many ways in which robots will change the way food and drinks are made, and served.
