Beyond organic: new trends coming to the fore: what levers should we pull to ensure consumer confidence?
After a string of health scandals over the past few decades, and especially now with the impact of the global pandemic, organic products have come to mean a ‘safe haven’ for many, guaranteeing quality to consumers. As a result, a whole new range of products has been introduced onto the market, either as supplements or alternatives to organically-certified products.
