In the following slides, Natural Foods Merchandiser showcases exciting products within four industry trends and opportunities identified by New Hope Network’s 2018 Next Forecast report: regenerative agriculture, collaboration, shortened supply chains, and less meat and dairy. 

It’s important, though, to remember that products don’t drive change. People do. Strategize Expo West by learning more about what’s trending and prioritizing deeper conversations. Instead of asking if a brand is sustainable, ask why. And ask how.

Here's to your best Expo West ever.
