4606	RAPS: New vegan recipes based on pea protein		<p style="font-weight: 400;">Meat-free products for vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians is one of the fastest-growing segments in the food industry. According to a recent report by the Smart Protein Project, sales of plant-based alternative products in Germany increased by 97 per cent between 2018 and 2020.[1] With its savory seasonings and functional concepts for meat alternatives, RAPS proves that ditching meat does not mean sacrificing enjoyment. In addition to products based on soy or wheat, new concepts with pea protein have also been created. With the help of numerous recipe ideas, food producers can address a large target group and create products that convince both with typical bite and pleasant mouthfeel, as well as best taste thanks to RAPS’ spice blends.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">The diverse application possibilities include meat-free versions of barbecue classics such as burger patties, coarse and fine grilled sausages, meatballs (also with creamy fillings such as jalapeno cheese sauce), barbecue skewers and cevapcici. When it comes to sensory characteristics, the products are very similar to the originals, thus appealing to "die-hard" barbecue fans. Product-specific firmness and texture can be adjusted in the production process, and all recipes can be easily implemented with standard meat processing equipment. Thanks to excellent freezing and thawing stability, frozen products are possible too.</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">As consumer demands become more individual and diverse, such requirements must be reflected on supermarket shelves. "With new vegan recipes, we want to make barbecue enjoyment possible for everyone thanks to the versatility of pea protein," says Josefine Schneider, product manager at RAPS. "In addition, we pay attention to short ingredient lists and a nutritionally valuable composition. Of course, this is also reflected in the labelling, which means we have been able to develop many recipes with Nutri Score A or B."</p> <p style="font-weight: 400;">In addition to the grill range, RAPS offers other vegan and vegetarian product concepts – for example, for wieners, cold cuts, schnitzel, vegetable and fresh spreads, fish fingers, meat and tuna salads. Thanks to the manufacturer's comprehensive portfolio, the products can be further individualised and refined with specific seasonings, marinades or dipping sauces.</p>	1		Technology	adrian.lazar@industriacarnii.ro	2021-04-14 09:57:47	2025-07-22 11:43:14	Details Edit Delete

2761	Ready meals segment drives the growth in the spices market	"Treasure the traditional and try something new" is the motto for the industry as new trends in the market are constantly require new recipes and ideas.	<p>Spices, especially the ones organically produced, are going to be spotlighted at IFFA 2019 in Frankfurt, between 4-9 May, as the ready meals segment is driving the growth in this market.<br />"For many consumers, spices and herbs are the epitome of the refinement of taste. When it comes to seasoning and taste for meat products, the motto is: 'Treasure the traditional and try something new'. Trends are changing ever more rapidly and, with them, also, preferences for particular flavours. The sector is thus building on its extensive knowledge of spices and innovative ideas are being put into practice in saleable products as quickly as possible", claim the organizers of the trade fair.<br />A broad range of flavoured sauces, pastes and meat marinades, based on both oils and emulsions, will be exhibited at IFFA. Pre-spiced and herb-marinated meat produced both industrially and by artisan butchers have proved themselves in the market over a number of years. <br />The convenience food sector is the one who drives the growth in the spice market, especially for the organically produced spices. " Many foods are today eaten as a snack on the premises or increasingly, too, on the move – snack-meals are very much on trend. This is an area where herb and spice companies often provide recipes and new ideas, as well as the herbs and spices themselves. The paradigm shift towards better quality and a greater ethical awareness of food on the part of the consumer shows itself, too, in the increasing demand for organically produced spices. Suppliers are reacting to this and constantly building up their offer of organic products", it is said in the press release.<br />At IFFA, from 4 to 9 May 2019 in Frankfurt am Main, the top suppliers from Germany and abroad will be presenting themselves and their products relating to the product group of Ingredients, Herbs, Spices, Additives, Skins and Casings in the new exhibition hall 12.1.<br />Messe Frankfurt is expecting over 1,000 exhibitors from some 50 countries. Over an area of approximately 120,000 square metres, the exhibitors will be showcasing innovative technologies, trends and ground-breaking solutions for all stages of meat processing, ranging from manufacturing to high-tech.</p>	1		Events		2019-03-28 04:46:51	2025-07-22 13:24:28	Details Edit Delete

2736	Ready-to-eat segment is boosting the growth in fresh meat packaging market	The global fresh meat packaging market is expected to reach $2.47billion by 2026, with vacuum skin packaging accounting for 32% market share.	<p>Research and advisory services Transparency Market Research predict a 2.30% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the fresh meat packaging sector thanks to the expansion of the ready-to-eat segment of food.<br />In 2015, the global fresh meat packaging market was estimated at $1.92 billion and its value could increase to $2.47 billion by 2026.

3481	REAL MEAT Act introduced in the US Senate		<p>Deb Fischer, senator of Nebraska and a member of the Senate Agriculture Committee, introduced the REAL MEAT Act to end deceptive labeling practices for alternative protein products. The bill would clarify the definition of beef for labeling purposes, eliminate consumer confusion resulting from misbranding, and ensure that the federal government can enforce the law.</p> <p>“Beef is derived from cattle—period. Under USDA, beef undergoes a rigorous inspection and labeling process, but plant-based protein products that mimic beef and are sometimes labeled as beef are overseen by the FDA instead. These products are not held to the same food safety and labeling standards as beef. Americans deserve to know what’s on their dinner plate. The Real MEAT Act will protect consumers from deceptive marketing practices and bring transparency to the grocery store,” said Senator Fischer.</p> <p>“It’s clear that fake-meat companies are continuing to mislead consumers about the nutritional merits and actual ingredient composition of their products. We commend the efforts of Senator Fischer on introducing this legislation, which would end deceptive labeling of fake meat products and allow cattle producers to compete on a level playing field,” said National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) President Jennifer Houston.<br />The NCBA found in a study that 55% of consumers did not understand that “plant-based beef” wasn’t beef at all, but instead an entirely vegan or vegetarian product. This bill would help to clear the confusion by codifying a definition of beef for labeling purposes and allowing the USDA to take action against misbranded products.</p> <p>The Real MEAT Act would codify the definitions of “beef” and “beef products.” It would further ensure that imitation meat products have the word “imitation” in the same size and prominence immediately before or after the name of the food and a statement indicating that the product does not contain meat. </p>	1		Retail		2019-12-19 09:15:22	2025-07-22 08:26:42	Details Edit Delete
6745	Reception honors Taiwan restaurants’ sustained commitment to U.S. Beef	Despite a slow start in 2023, U.S. beef has seen tremendous growth in exports to Taiwan during the past five years. From 2017 through 2022, U.S. beef exports to Taiwan increased 45% by volume and 82% in value, reaching a record $747 million.	<p>Foodservice is critical to U.S. beef’s continued export growth and last month, USMEF-Taiwan hosted an awards reception for those restaurants that meet stringent requirements in a promotional program for U.S. beef. The Diamond Plus Precious (DPP) program, established in 2017, requires participating restaurants to meet rigorous qualifications related to country-of-origin disclosure, U.S. beef’s percentage share of menu and a mandatory usage of USDA Choice grade beef. Program participants undergo systematic reviews of their operations and unannounced inspection visits by USMEF staff.</p> <p>The reception was attended by 116 representatives from 71 DPP-participant restaurants, officials from the Agricultural Trade Office of the American Institute in Taiwan and several media outlets.</p> <p>"These restaurants were critical to maintaining U.S. beef’s exposure during the pandemic, are key to growing market share and are very valuable in positioning U.S. beef in Taiwan as top quality", says USMEF Taiwan Director Davis Wu.</p>	1		Market	adrian.lazar@industriacarnii.ro	2023-09-16 00:05:37	2025-07-22 11:06:53	Details Edit Delete
3472	Recessionary habits are back in the British market	Consumers' confidence has dropped to 2008 levels, with home-cooked meals and cooking from scratch trends coming back.	<p>Restaurants in the UK are expected to see sales dropping as home-cooked meal trend is back among British consumers. Due to a drop in consumer's confidence, eating out is not as popular as it was a couple of years ago. Instead, families are more likely to stay at home and eat together on different occasions.<br />"Cutting back on spend often means cutting back on eating out. This year we’ve seen an additional 1.2bn meals eaten in the home or carried out, across breakfast, lunch and dinner. Where we might have spent an evening out at the cinema or restaurant, we’re now more likely to be staying in with Netflix and a takeaway, consuming 37m more takeaways than last year.</p> <p>Meal preparation is also changing. This year, we’ve seen over half a billion more meals being prepared from scratch, compared with 2017, driven by health and cost concerns. This is an increase of 8%, driven by families who are sitting down to eat together more than in previous years. Batch cooking has also increased in popularity, with Italian, Oriental, Mexican and Indian dishes driving growth. These dishes are helping to boost beef mince and chicken performance but other proteins and cuts typically feature less heavily.</p> <p>As people look to cut back on discretionary spend, eating out at lunch has suffered, with more people packing a lunchbox instead. Much batch cooking ends up in lunchboxes – 163 million of which now feature something savoury made on another day, up 13% on last year," said the latest retail and consumer insight from AHDB.<br />On the other hand, meals perceived as a treat are expected to favor meats such as lamb or pork, which are valued for their taste and sometimes seen as a treat. "Meals chosen because they’re a treat or reward have grown by 2.5% year-on-year while those chosen for taste are up by 1.4%", shows the report.<br />Consumption habits will change only if the economy recovers fast in the next period, otherwise " we could see an amplification of current trends. In the 2008 recession, we saw an additional 2bn meals eaten in the home – currently, that’s at 1.2bn so there’s plenty of room for growth. Snack foods and small treats will continue to do well, while healthy options may be left on the supermarket shelf".</p>	1		Retail		2019-12-17 07:55:17	2025-07-22 00:40:51	Details Edit Delete
8644	Recognition of Paraná as FMD free should boost pork shipments to Chile	The Brazilian Animal Protein Association (ABPA) celebrated the announcement by the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock that Chile has recognized the state of Paraná as a Foot-and-Mouth Disease-Free Area without Vaccination. The information was released by MAPA, following publication in the Chilean Official Gazette.	<p style="font-weight: 400;">Paraná's recognition should bring new momentum to the sector's business.

According to the official data recorded this year, the trade fair has been the home for more than 7,200 exhibitors - 87% from outside France- and it has been visited by 310,000 industry representatives (73% visitors from outside France) during 21-25 October. "SIAL Paris offers a unique and comprehensive melting pot of experiences from across the entire food universe. For the sectors that already count today, along with those in their infancy, the young start-ups that will be making the news tomorrow in France, India, Canada, Brazil or elsewhere. There was a window of visibility for everyone," Nicolas Trentesaux declared.<br />135 official international visits, 250 "events within the event", 2,355 innovations submitted for the SIAL Innovation Awards and 15 Grand Prix award-winners: "This year, once again, we have succeeded in setting the bar still higher, to propose to all professionals in the sector a truly exciting event with lots going on everywhere, all the time." Over the five days of the show, SIAL Paris promoted more than 400,000 products over an area equivalent to more than 100 supermarkets laid out end-to-end! "It remains an event that nevertheless retains its human dimension, since it is about food, after all!"</p> <p>Taste - True - Meaning: this was the inspirational triptych of SIAL Paris 2018, depicting the future scenario toward which Planet Food and all its stakeholders are turning, in a judicious interplay of boldness and commitment. "This is a future which, short of predicting it, we wished at least to anticipate in order to offer genuine answers to the professionals, with so much in the throes of change: everything, in fact! Customer expectations in terms of health, authenticity, transparency and eating well have never been so strong; the responsibilities of the industry keep on growing; and, to cap it all, we shall have 100 million more people worldwide to feed every year by 2050! No other sector in the world is faced with such challenges. No other has so much at stake!", insists Nicolas Trentesaux. So, what is to be done? In 2018, even more than in the previous editions, SIAL Paris proposed a focus on innovation: threefold!<br />Innovation through identifying the trends and mapping out the prospects: The 2018 edition of SIAL Paris provided the opportunity to present the 4th part of the new and exclusive "Food 360" study carried out by KANTAR TNS in association with the Future Food book of trends from XTC World Innovation, along with the out-of-home foodservice trends study from GIRA Conseil. Not only this, but the future was also depicted through the products selected in the Foodtech space, presenting the innovations of the entire French food value chain. Ecotrophelia Europe also offered another vision of the food of tomorrow, by means of a national and European food innovation competition: "Student Trophies for Food Innovation", a true ideas incubator for the food industry. Lastly, true to its commitment to "inspire… and look deeper", the world's biggest food exhibition proposed, with Future Lab, a new event dedicated to food forecasting. This was a real hit with the public throughout the five days of the show! An experiential tunnel, a "rising start-ups" space and virtual reality concepts: Future Lab enabled visitors to project themselves ahead to the Planet Food of 2030.<br />There were 650 start-ups present at this edition of SIAL Paris and more than half the exhibitors have already booked their place for 2020. </p>	1		Events		2018-11-14 09:41:45	2025-07-22 09:15:35	Details Edit Delete
5631	Record breaking results for Norwegian seafood exports	Norway exported seafood with a value of NOK 11.6 billion July, representing an increase of NOK 2.1 billion, or 23 per cent, compared to July 2021. Year to date, Norway has exported NOK 81.7 billion by seafood value. This is an increase of NOK 18.5 billion, or 29 per cent, compared to last year.	<p>“After a record-breaking first half of the year, July follows on as the best July month ever for Norwegian seafood exports. Since records began, July was also the strongest single month for salmon and trout. Despite the strong growth in the value of seafood exports so far this year, challenging times can still impact development going forward”, says Børge Grønbech, Acting CEO of the Norwegian Seafood Council.</p> <p>“While the export volume for important species such as salmon, cod, mackerel, and herring fell in July, high salmon prices made the largest contribution to July´s strong seafood export results. At the same time, the export price for several other species and products also reached record highs in July. For example, clipfish of cod and saithe and frozen whole cod and haddock have achieved prices not seen before”, Grønbech explains.</p> <p>“These are also challenging times for the Norwegian seafood industry, which is impacted by high inflation and cost growth. Both factors have weakened most consumer´s purchasing power. In addition, supply logistics out to the markets are challenging in several areas. These factors can influence the development of seafood exports going forward”, points out Grønbech.</p> <p><strong>July was the best month for salmon exports</strong></p> <ul> <li>96,500 tonnes of salmon with a value of NOK 8.7 billion were exported in July.</li> <li>Export volume fell by 5 per cent.</li> <li>Export value increased by NOK 1.8 billion, or 27 per cent, compared to July last year.</li> <li>Poland, Denmark, and France were the biggest markets for Norwegian salmon in July.</li> </ul> <p>July 2022 was the best single month ever for salmon exports. Exports were NOK 10 million higher than the previous record month, which was in June this year. The price for fresh whole salmon in July was NOK 84.87 per kg.</p> <p><strong>Seasonal variation for salmon exports</strong></p> <p>We still see high demand for Norwegian salmon, while export volume is behind last year's level. The price for fresh whole salmon in July was 35 per cent higher than last year's for the same month.</p> <p>“We have seen the pattern of increased volume and lower prices in late summer and autumn in recent years. For example, the export volume for fresh whole salmon in July this year was 17 per cent higher than in June, and the price was 12 per cent lower than in June this year”, says Paul T. Aandahl, Seafood Analyst with the Norwegian Seafood Council.</p> <p><strong>British consumers prioritize seafood</strong></p> <p>The UK has seen the largest volume growth for salmon this year, increasing from 5,400 tonnes to 35,500 tonnes. Growth continues in July, with an increase of 9 per cent, or 400 tonnes, to 5,100 tonnes.</p> <p>“Even with rising prices, British consumers prioritize buying seafood. Many Britons are keen to eat healthily, and it is pleasing to see that consumers stick with these good habits even with rising prices. The growth in the volume of salmon to Great Britain can also be seen in the context of somewhat lower production of salmon from Scotland”, reports Hans Frode Kielland Asmyhr, UK seafood envoy.</p>	1		Market	adrian.lazar@industriacarnii.ro	2022-08-10 03:51:28	2025-07-22 10:06:23	Details Edit Delete

This represents an increase of 25% in volume compared to 2016 and a 31% in value.</p> <p>Japan, Vietnam and South Korea were three other markets that driven the exports of salmon to this record level, Asian markets receiving last year 169,000 tonnes of salmon worth NOK 11.6 billion (up to 11.6%).</p> <p>On the other hand, trout exports have suffered a reduction of 42% in 2017, from 68,000 tonnes to 40.000 tonnes.

5896	Record high settlement prices to cooperative owners of Danish Crown Beef	Lifting its revenue by more than 25 per cent during the past year, Danish Crown Beef was able to increase its settlement prices to cooperative owners by 40 per cent in the financial year.	<p><span lang="DE">In the first half of 2022, beef prices set one record after the other. Since the summer period, however, inflation and rising consumer prices have caused a slump in demand, but Danish Crown Beef emerged from the 2021/22 financial year in excellent shape, enabling the company to raise the supplementary payment for owners’ supplies of cattle from DKK 1.30 to DKK 1.35 per kilo.   </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">Revenue was up by 28 per cent to DKK 6 billion, against DKK 4.7 billion the previous year. The increase was driven by strong demand for Danish beef and low overall supply across European markets. </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">“We are in a stronger position than we have been for a long time. In all parts of the organisation, our employees delivered a tremendous effort throughout the year. We have a fruitful cooperation with our largest customers both in Denmark and abroad. We need to build on this cooperation through continuing innovation to help us ensure competitive settlement prices for our cooperative owners,” says Finn Klostermann, CEO of Danish Crown Beef.  </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">Throughout the year, we experienced strong and satisfactory operations across Danish Crown Beef’s abattoirs in Holsted and Aalborg and at our German locations in Husum and Teterow.  </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">Our processing facility at Sdr. Felding launched a range of new products for exports and for the domestic Danish market, and the Burger Boost success continued with sales nearly doubling during the past 12 months.  </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">The hides producer Scan-Hide maintained earnings at a high level, contributing throughout the year to the record-high settlement prices for cattle, while also investing heavily in branding and sustainability. </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">"During the first nine to ten months of the financial year, we were successful in everything we did, but over the course of the summer, we started to feel the effects of the elevated inflation by way of a slump in demand. Therefore, we now need to retain the market position we have built in recent years – among other things owing to a high degree of innovation and new products, but also our dedication to sustainability and animal welfare. We have a very strong foundation but need to remain competitive every day to prevent the competition from taking our place," says Finn Klostermann. </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">For our cooperative owners, the persistent demand resulted in a record-high average settlement price, which landed at DKK 30.50 per kilo at the end of the financial year, which was DKK 8.70 per kilo more than last year. Danish Crown Beef thus lifted the settlement price for the Danish cooperative owners by 40 per cent. In August, Danish Crown Beef’s average settlement price across the categories peaked at DKK 36.90 per kilo.  </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">Driven by strong operations at the German abattoirs and at Scan-Hide and stable financial performance in the jointly owned companies, Sweden-based KLS, the trading company ESS-Food and Sokolów in Poland, supplementary payments for the 2021/22 financial year were DKK 0.05 higher per kilo than in the previous year. </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">"Looking back on the past year, Danish Crown Beef has performed extremely well. Settlement cattle prices  have never been higher, the animals are collected on time, while abattoir operations are stable and efficient. It is close to impossible to predict how demand will unfold in 2023, but at Danish Crown we have great things underway," says Karsten Willumsen, chairman of Beef Forum, who highlights the concepts ‘Dansk Kalv’ with a high level of animal welfare, Premium Kvier with a focus on eating quality, and Friland Naturpleje, which aims to protect Danish biodiversity. </span></p> <p><span lang="DE">"These concepts are tailored to both the retail business and the foodservice market, and they are aligned with consumer wishes and producer circumstances. Danish Crown’s principal duty is to ensure as high a settlement price for its cooperative owners as possible - which we, along with the all the cooperative owners, will work hard to also achieve in 2023."</span></p>	1		Market	adrian.lazar@industriacarnii.ro	2022-11-27 04:55:51	2025-07-22 02:08:14	Details Edit Delete
