Plant-Based Food Consumer
Thursday, January 16, 2020
(2:00 pm EST / 1:00 pm CST / 12:00 PM MST/ 11:00 AM PST)
Webinar Description:
A recent IRi study showed the main drivers for buying plant-based food alternatives are health and diet, and have made their way into 53 percent of U.S. households. According to the study, this trend will only continue to grow. While each generation purchases plant-based food items, you will find out which consumers are most likely to buy these foods, and insights in their demographics and incomes. In general, younger consumers have a far more positive view of the health aspects of plant-based milks than older generations.
