DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Top Trends in Savory Snacks 2019" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Summary
Top Trends in Savory Snacks 2019 outlines the key consumer and innovation trends currently impacting savory snacks.

Analysis also extends to key ingredient and packaging trends, as well as future-focused insight that indicates prospective growth drivers for the sector.
The market for savory snacks is being shaped by broader health- and technology-driven influences. For example, consumers are being drawn to the refrigerated sections of the supermarket for fresher and seemingly more wholesome snack options, while the proliferation of on-demand services is making it more convenient to access fresh or packaged food, thus turning virtually any food into a "snack." Against this backdrop are key category-specific trends and opportunities to stand out and appeal to a more health-conscious and connected audience.
Scope
- While salty and savory flavors are predictably the most popular in savory snacks, the appeal of secondary flavors should not be overlooked.

- In an effort to reverse the negative perceptions of processed food, manufacturers are pursuing more natural forms of processing in order to "rebrand" the concept and improve perceptions of processed snacks.
