Redefining
Fruit Innovation
Earlier this year, we released our first-ever trend forecast to highlight the evolving food and beverage landscape through the unique lens of fruit and decode consumer appetites and behaviors. From mini meals as the new main, to treatonomics delights and everything in between, we have rounded up what’s sure to be showstoppers of 2026.
Our Trend Forecast is a celebration of what we do best – blending cultural zeitgeist, social listening and category data to show what people crave and how fruit is a big part of that.
These trends have helped guide our key innovations being hightlighted this year at Expo West.
