The Food & Beverage industry is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by changes in consumer preferences, technological innovations, and global challenges such as sustainability. The main trends in the sector with a focus on ICT integration primarily concern Digital Transformation.
The integration of ICT technologies is redefining operations and the consumer experience. The smart kitchen appliance market, valued at $18.75 billion, is growing rapidly, and Automation and AI are technologies available to everyone with food preparation robots and AI-powered chatbots for personalized interactions.
Sustainability and eco-conscious practices are of central importance; Consumers are increasingly placing importance on environmentally friendly products and processes, for example, sustainable packaging, where brands are investing in biodegradable and reusable materials to meet the demands for eco-friendly packaging, regenerative agriculture with practices aimed at reducing water consumption and the protection of natural ecosystems are gaining ground, as consumers choose foods that reflect their environmental values.
Omnichannel strategies have exploded since the pandemic, which has accelerated the adoption of hybrid models that combine physical and digital interactions with self-service kiosks and online ordering, Virtual kitchens with ghost kitchen and delivery-only models are emerging as cost-effective solutions to meet the growing demand for food “on-the-go”.
