ShelfNow predicts the top Christmas food & beverage trends for 2022
Intelligent B2B European online marketplace, ShelfNow, analyses internal data and sales trends to predict what the top Christmas food and beverage trends are likely to be this year. The wholesale marketplace enables direct trading between smaller, high-quality food and beverage producers and independent buyers in the hospitality and retail sectors. Designed to make F&B product sourcing more efficient, affordable, and transparent. As consumers are faced with the first restriction-free festive season this year, ShelfNow
shares its exclusive insight on sales performance across plant-based, low and no alcohol and various other categories to inform its predictions for this year.
PLANT-BASED ALTERNATIVES
Across the food and beverage industry, the popularity of vegetarian and vegan diets continues to grow with recent figures revealing that the global plant-based meat market is set to be worth $15.7 billion by 2027. As the festive season approaches, ShelfNow has seen plant-based alternatives becoming less of an alternative at Christmas and more
of key consideration. In 2022 the digital wholesaler added 922 new vegan and vegetarian products to its marketplace.
ShelfNow also shares that many of its partners are providing innovative plant-based options for the seasonal period of indulgence. A longstanding favourite with ShelfNow buyers, Sweet Lounge is a multi-award-winning brand that produces natural, plant-based sweets in compostable packaging. The company has also seen high sales of tortilla chips from Mexican corn tortilla brand Cool Chile as hospitality operators are looking to stock up on sharing essentials ahead of the Christmas season.
