A former Junior Chef of the Year, Charles Banks, now with ‘the food people’, will be presenting a food trends talk each day at Exclusively Housewares and Exclusively Electrical, which will be taking place at London’s Business Design Centre on June 11-12.
A self-confessed ‘foodie’, he will be sharing the most relevant food and drink future trends which will have an impact on, for example, tableware and tabletop companies over the next two years.
“The problem for business today is that food moves fast, and often the consumer is moving faster still,” Charles explains. “So understanding what the next vegan, the next street food or the next Korean is, is critical for business.”
The food trend talks will be taking place in the Trend Hub on both days of the show at 11.15am each day. Visitors will be able to explore the online trends platform, have a look through the 2019/20 trends book and take away a free copy of the 2019/20 trends infographic poster.
Every year, ‘the food people’ release a rolling two year future food and trend forecast to define the social and cultural forces impacting food and drink mega trends. This includes cuisines, ingredients, cooking methods and preparation techniques.
