U.S. Protein Availability

Low/No Market Growth in Developed Countries with Existing High Meat and Dairy Product Consumption

• Population growth slow or declining • Ageing population with reduced food intake • Concerns re. impact of saturated fat on health* • Social pressures: concern about GHG/climate-

friendly diets, animal welfare, guilt re. grain-fed beef • For lower income groups, migration to lower-priced

products (e.g. white meats, processed cheese) • But, for higher income groups, premium “special

treat” meats, dairy nutraceuticals, weight management/muscle-building products have appeal

* Particularly, older consumers; exacerbated by periodic food industry safety scares * Clear threat of “satfat taxes” on butter/cheese/full fat products

Creating Corporate and Social Value Through Sharing Values with Partners in the Supply Chain

• “Big Food” is “under the gun”! The bigger the brand, the bigger the risks for the brand owner

• brand owners will require supply chain partners who understand, share and live core values

• major suppliers of all inputs will carry the “brand integrity torch” for the brand owners

• branded supply chain partnerships will be closer and longer-lasting than commodity supply chains

• business models are changing, led by global fmcg firms, Major retailers, QSR and manufacturers will be expected to lead on safety and sustainability initiatives

For Food and Drink Products, Taste/Smell is Paramount but What About the Story? • When it comes to communicating the story to the

consumer, who is the hero/heroine?: - the country of production; - the region/local area; - the processor and/or farmer; - the production process; - the product; - the animals/produce/the ingredients; - the heritage/tradition/terroir; - all of the above?!

From a Consumer Perspective, What Are You Famous For in Global Export Markets?

Country Famous For Best Known Food Germany Engineering Sausage, beer, sauerkraut Mexico Hats, illicit drugs Tequila. burritos Italy Racing cars, fashion Pasta, olive oil, cheese, ham …. Ireland St. Patrick’s Day, charm Guinness, potatoes Japan Cars, electrical goods Sushi England Royalty, pop music Cream teas, fish & chips USA High tech, Hollywood Burgers, hot dogs, big portions Australia Sport, swimwear Wine, barbies (BBQ) South Africa Mandela, diamonds, gold Biltong!

Some Concluding Thoughts

• Don’t write off the old developed countries – that’s where the wealth is but not the growth

• If China stutters, we’ll all stumble! • Volatile global food price outlook will constrain

demand for protein foods and exacerbate political instability in emerging countries

• “The Green Train” has left the station get on board! • Big fmcg changing their business models – from

CSR to CSV • Supply chain relationships mature and strengthen

driven by the need to protect brand value
