HomeAgriculture & Food

Agriculture & Food

Our Approach

The agri-food industry, a key sector in Europe, has come to the forefront following the recent health and geopolitical crises.

Agri-food players are highly diversified and involved in several stages of the value chain, from farm seed production to the processing phase.

Each of them is facing strong evolutionary challenges in order to comply with the expectations of their customers and public authorities in terms of product quality and environmental protection.

Key Trends

Structural and cyclical trends are lead to fundamental changes in agriculture & food, offering new business opportunities while putting significant pressures on margins.

Sub-sectors

The agri-food industry consists of six interdependent sectors: agriculture and livestock, ingredient manufacturing, food processing, beverage manufacturing, catering and FoodTech.

Crops & farming

The crops and farming industry is facing a double challenge: to maintain margins despite inflation, and adapt to the evolving expectations of consumers who want ever higher quality products.

Ingredients

The Ingredients sector is growing, driven in particular by the increasing demand for ready meals.

However, innovation remains essential to meeting new expectations for more natural products while addressing the operational challenges of selling food products online.

Food

Food processing players are strongly affected by commodity inflation, and need to adapt their operational models to facilitate pass-through action, secure supply chains, and meet the evolving demands of consumers.

Beverages

Drinking is no longer simply about quenching thirst. Innovation is driving sector growth, particularly in the booming health and energy drinks segment.

Innovative packaging is also key to meeting the demands of engaged consumers wanting more sustainable packaging and products.

Catering

Caterers have had to adapt their business models to new ways of living and working, particularly in response to Covid.

The work-from-home revolution has cut into revenues and forced market players to focus on operational excellence and portfolio diversification to maintain their margins.

Food Tech

Food Tech brings together digital, technological and entrepreneurial innovations, implementing disruptive solutions along the entire value chain, from production through to distribution, sales and consumption.

Our pan-European group helps companies solve complex problems by providing both the right technical expertise and a human and invested approach to finding concrete solutions.
