Sustainability Strategies, Practices and Opinions in The Food Industry

Sustainability Strategies, Practices and Opinions in
the Food Industry

Released On 15th December 2014
Summary
The top multinational food ingredient and food product manufacturers all have strategic
goals and operational procedures in place to work for more sustainable food production,
but many challenges exist. Specialty food ingredients manufacturing requires tools and
solutions to improve resource efficiency along the whole of the food value chain.
In June 2014, Canadeans food industry panel research found that 98 industry executives
rated general performance parameters such as increase market share, improve customer
satisfaction, and grow profit levels, as the most important objectives to be achieved over
the next three years. However it is clearly that at the very top of the companies, 69% of
executives overseeing the companys long term survival, state that they and their
organizations Have a duty to protect the environment in which they operate. Amongst
European consumers, there are regional variations regarding the rate of transparency in

supply chains. However, the overall results from UK consumers saw a stable opinion from
2013 to 2014, as 64% of all respondents considered themselves to be sustainability
conscious consumers, and 36% did not consider this to be important. Amongst global
industry players, there are some key issues raised by ingredient manufacturers, related to
processing, water, expenditure, recycling, and cleaning, and biomass management in
general, via biofuel options or the discovery of new by-product opportunities. However,
Life Cycle Assessment programs for top agricultural raw materials and ingredients by
volume are high on the agenda for major ingredient suppliers, as well as RandD
investments for providing more food solutions to the growing world population. Over the
years, the worlds largest food and beverage manufacturers have largely focused on the raw
material supply side in their sustainability programs, in order to reach new goals; this is in
addition to the current mainstream goals regarding greenhouse gas emissions and
packaging reductions. Many of the multinationals are directly into the support programs of
local farming communities in terms of supplying goods, consulting on issues such as seeds
selections, crop rotations, fertilization and cultivation, the collection and handling of crops,
and even microloans opportunities. The farming communities supported typically grow
commodity crops such as coffee, cocoa, oil palms, fruits, or vegetables. These programs are
typically in collaborations with ingredient manufacturers, NGOs, or other interest
organizations.

Synopsis
Sustainability in the food industry is a major strategic issue for all stakeholders involved in
the food supply chain, from agriculture, ingredient manufacturing, product manufacturing,
packing, and distribution, to the consumers. The food industry has environmental
obligations to preserve biodiversity, reduce water, and reduce waste and emission gasses,
as well as caring for livelihood in terms of health and wealth local societies. In addition, the
global food industry is faced with increasing pressure regarding raw materials, ingredient
sourcing, and food production to feed the growing population, in an environment of
constant optimization and supply chain control. To feed the current global populations
daily needs requires the annual production of nutrients to deliver 360 million tons of
carbohydrates, 364 million tons of protein, and 195 million tons of fat, as a minimum. The
agriculture and fishery industries are stretched today and the expected increase in the
population, of 38% in the next 15 years, will demand clever strategies. This report
evaluates industry executives opinions on sustainability issues and a focus group of
consumers have been questioned about their concerns and sentiments. The report
concludes that sustainability measures have mainly been focused on the raw material
supply chain, issues related to production energy costs, and better environmental
preservation, depending on a stakeholders position in the supply chain, as well as
individual market conditions. The newest challenges ahead for the industry are mainly the
handling of biomass waste in terms of pursuing innovations of by-product ingredients, as
well as handling the overall biodiversity issue on raw material usage. This report looks into
current framework conditions for the overall food industry supply chain, the rating of
priorities and issues from industry leaders to consumers, and evaluates key measures of
sustainability strategies implemented within the top ten global ingredient and food product
manufacturers.
