The first session, The trends of the free-from industry and how to increase customer loyalty’, will explore the evolving landscape in the ‘free from’ category, offering valuable insights on maintaining strong customer relationships.

In her second session, The issues of ‘May Contain’ in the Free From sections! May Contain may as well say May contain Glass’, attendees in the Supplier & Insights Theatre will be educated on the critical concerns surrounding ‘May Contain’ labels, delving into the imperative need for heightened awareness and stringent regulations in this area.

In the Vegan & Plant-Based Theatre, Professor Atze Jan van der Groot from the Wageningen University & Research, will take centre stage to deliver an insightful session on How to make the best meat analogues?’ This session promises to unveil cutting-edge methods in crafting meat analogues, revealing the underlying strategies aimed at emulating the intricate fibrous structure of meat.

Furthermore, Winfried Muehling, Marketing and Communications Director of Pro Carton, will spearhead an insightful session in the Free From Retail Theatre on ‘Cartonboard – leading the road to circularity‘, delving into the pivotal discussions surrounding the ongoing Plastic Packaging Waste Regulations (PPWR). This session will underscore the critical role of sustainable packaging solutions in realising the ambitious objectives outlined in the EU Green Deal.
