The six sub-segments of The Food Revolution

Six structurally growing sub-segments shape the shift towards a sustainable, efficient food industry. As part of our ‘Food Revolution’ strategy, we identify 40-60 companies along the agri-food value chain that have a key impact on the development of these markets.



Automation and agritech

The food industry is lagging far behind other sectors when it comes to automation, digitisation and use of data. However, investments in agritech have recently picked up pace greatly and will multiply five-fold by 2030, to an estimated USD 700 billion.

Alternative proteins

Proteins that can be created without any animals needing to be slaughtered are ripe with potential. Lab-grown meat emits up to 96% less greenhouse gases. The market for plant-based proteins will grow by 30% per annum by 2030, reaching a size of USD 85 billion.

Sustainable packaging solutions

Plastic and single-use systems dominate today’s packaging market, causing huge environmental problems in terms of both production and disposal. The future belongs to biodegradable products made from renewable materials.

Food safety and clean label

It is hard to imagine processed foods without additives. New developments are not only making them safer, but also more sustainable. This segment is expected to grow at annual pace of eight percent.

Healthy, functional food

The WHO estimates that a healthy diet can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer by 80%. The annual growth rate for healthy and functional food is at around six percent.

New forms of consumption

The consumer behaviour of the younger generation is very different from that of the older generation. Today, 40% of all consumers are under 35. The estimated annual growth rate in this area is currently just shy of nine percent.
