Conscientious consumption: Meat, Fish & Eggs
Aug 2019Growth in the meat, fish and egg category is stimulated by high-protein diets; greater demand for fresh meat over processed meats; easier availability of free-range, GMO-free and organic certified meat products; sodium-reduced options; increasing premiumization; and flavor innovation (ethnic specialities and spices).

In 2018, trays (38 percent) and packets (38 percent) are the top packaging formats for the category.
