Insights & Portfolio Strategy solutions
Ingredient trend insights
Ingredient trend insights provides insights into the status of the ingredient and macrotrends. Trend data is always taken into account for the trial model, but in this phase it can also help to define interesting flavor camps and ingredients to explore.
Market insights
Market research is an NPD basic. But what if you could use AI to dig below the top-line numbers? Foodpairing technology allows deep market insight to be seamlessly integrated into the NPD process for faster, better innovation.
Core product flavor insights
Your power brands require protection through continuous product innovation and renovation. This requires meaningful research and development. Foodpairing’s AI-powered tools allow you to map innovation opportunities for your core products, strengthening flavor insight for impactful launches.
Competitor flavor mapping
Competitor flavor mapping provides insights into the flavor profile and predicted liking of competitive products. This tool provides you with intelligence on the flavor toolbox and strategies of your competitors.
Portfolio mapping & white spaces
Mapping your portfolio through the lens of purchase intent provides unique insight into your product line-up. Combining this approach with an analysis of flavor whitespaces points to innovation opportunities with maximum impact. .
Portfolio optimization
You need to achieve maximum reach with the shelf space you have. But a product set that resonates in one market will not necessarily be the best fit in another. An in-depth understanding of the local consumer is needed. Foodpairing’s machine learning portfolio maximization tools will tell you what SKUs will work best, for what customers, in what markets.
