Travel, the need for sustainable products, a high concern for health, and the ease of sharing information are exposing consumers globally to a variety of cultures. Consumers are increasingly connected to and influenced by foreign cultures and markets, leading to a shift in preferences and consumption experiences, which in turn is driving the transfer of innovation between emerging and developed markets, and also between Eastern and Western markets.

Scope

• Manufacturers are being inspired to migrate ingredients between Eastern and Western cultures and emerging and developed markets as consumer demand for variety and openness to experimentation increases migration between East and West
• In developed markets in the East such as in parts of Asia (e.g. Japan), consumers are increasingly looking for more varied and exciting consumption experiences.
• In both developed and emerging economies there is demand for imported ingredients that cater to

consumers' changing tastes and product perceptions.
