Karen Byrne, New Business & Innovation Strategist, on Product Inspiration and Customer Relevance. At Dawn Farms, we draw inspiration from multiple sources, starting with research reports from leading insight agencies that highlight emerging consumer flavour and cuisine trends. We then validate these insights by exploring key food hotspots across Europe, ensuring they reflect both mainstream and emerging market offerings. Finally, we return to desk research, cross-referencing trends with social media activity to confirm they align with what consumers want to experience and recreate at home. #DawnFarms #Foodtrends #foodservice #Foodquality #Foodindustry #cuisinetrends #consumerflavour

What does the future of protein look like? According to recent insights: 🥩 100% Meat – 43% 🥩 Meat Mimics – 2% 🥩🌱 Hybrid Products – 46% 🌱 100% Plant – 9% The landscape is beginning to shift, with hybrid products leading the way - balancing the indulgence and familiarity of meat with the benefits of plant-based options.
