A 2020 Vision: Plant-based, CBD Curious, and Clean Energy

From plant-based dairy alternatives and the rise of oatmilk, to CBD-infused beverages and clean energy sources… what are the most bankable, and drinkable, beverage trends impacting the market?

Marketing Associate Holly McHugh will be joining FoodNavigator-USA on March 19th in a panel discussion about 2020 Beverage Trends during a free 60-minute webinar. We will dive into the emerging beverage categories, the innovation driving these trends, and what consumers are demanding out of their beverages.

During the webinar we’ll cover:

  • What are consumers demanding out of a functional beverage – energy, focus, hydration?
  • How fast is the plant-based dairy alternatives category growing? Can oat milk be as big as almond milk? Will this category turn more functional as time goes on?
  • Where does the market for CBD-infused beverages stand? Who is the target consumer and why are they seeking out drinks containing CBD?
  • What innovations are proving successful within the conventional dairy drinks category?
