elcome to the November issue of Kennedy’s Confection. It’s been a very strange year for many of us and I think I’m not the only person that can’t wait to say goodbye to 2020. But we do have Christmas to look forward to, and despite the current COVID-19 pandemic potentially spoiling some of our loved traditions, I’m sure we can all find a way to get into the Christmas spirit. It’s humbling to see that despite these unprecedented times, businesses keep moving forward with innovation and development. The partnership between Orangeworks and Tanis Food Tec is a clear example of how bringing our different strengths together pays off. You can find out more about the future plans of the two companies on page 12. And with there being so much uncertainty in the industry across the globe, Kennedy’s has taken a look at how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted consumer behaviour in one of the largest countries in the world – the USA (p16). It’s clear from the findings that there has been an increased consumer demand for confectionery in these times. Sustainability is just as important as before, which we have seen especially with Ferrero’s latest sustainability report. Find out more about the group’s latest climate goals and its sustainability journey so far on page 26.
EDITOR’s LETTER W
A burning question for many businesses across the sector has
been ‘should I stay, or should I go?’. Yes, we’re talking about whether attending annual trade shows like Interpack and ISM is really worth it in the current climate. Editor, Angus Kennedy, finds out about where people stand when it comes to attending Interpack 2021 (p28).
Sit back, enjoy our November issue and stay safe!
