Statistics repeatedly show that companies that innovate are more successful than those that don’t. Whether it’s to

completely new products.

From a flavour point of view, the world has never looked so exciting. Today’s consumers have a huge sense of
adventure and a seemingly endless thirst for new experiences. At the same time, a deep desire for truth and
authenticity is driving them in the direction of the past and towards ingredients with trustworthy back stories
– often stretching back to ancient times.
