When it comes to adapting to ever-changing consumer preferences, food and beverage companies often exercise one of these options:

1) Change their ingredients in current products to make them healthier, more innovative, or fitting of a new trend or offering

2) Internally develop new products – with all the R&D, marketing, and innovation budgets and time to do so Or,

3) Acquire or merge with a younger company with their finger already on the new product or channel.
