Plantbased - Development and Innovation - a conversation with Katleen Haefele

: Katleen Haefele of ProVeg summarizes the current developments in the field of plant-based nutrition in conversation and gives a little preview of the future.

What developments are there in plant-based nutrition?

After the enormous expansion of the market for meat alternatives, we can now look forward to new products in plant-based cheese, yogurt and quark alternatives, as well as further developments in plant-based fish and egg alternatives. This allows the catering industry to veganize plant-based dishes ever more easily.

What innovations can we expect in vegan nutrition?

We are during a nutritional turnaround. Demand for plant-based foods is growing across Europe. Cell-cultured and especially hybrid products are likely to reach market maturity in the next few years. Hybrid products combine the best of both worlds: a plant-based base and cell-cultured fat for juiciness and authentic meat flavor.

What is ProVeg offering at INTERNORGA 2022?

ProVeg will of course be back at INTERNORGA 2022. At our stand, visitors can expect daily masterclasses on various topics. The day before INTERNORGA, I will also be presenting our latest system catering ranking at the International Foodservice Forum.
