Convenience
Ready to eat meal solutions are increasingly popular; developing varieties tailored with this in mind optimises profitability and drives increased consumption
Beyond appearance
Whilst not immediately obvious like appearance and taste, aspects such as shelf life, ease of handling and improved processability are critical for the success of convenience products.
Solutions based approach
Approaching this from a solution based perspective; Rijk Zwaan actively collaborates internationally with fresh cut and processing companies to identify where improvements are possible or where innovation is necessary.
