What Are Some Industry Trends & Insights?
Today’s market is characterized by tight competition, with new goods entering the market every day accompanied by fresh ideas and innovative marketing tactics. Investing in quality, custom food and beverage labels is crucial to stay ahead of other brands with similar offerings, drawing customers to your product over all others before they’ve even consumed it.
One current industry trend for food and beveragea labels are sensory labels, or self-adhesive labels that provide some sort of tactile experience for the consumer. This may include utilizing textured paper, hot or cold stamping to create shiny and colorful foils, and embossing for raised designs or text. Instead of simply engaging consumers’ sight, sensory labels incorporate a second sense, touch, for a memorable brand interaction.
QR codes on labels are another method to boost engagement with your brand. Customers scan them with their smartphones to easily and quickly access online information about your product and company. This promotes an interactive experience and is another way to highlight your product’s strengths.
Increased consumer expectations for manufacturers to be more transparent in their food labeling is another industry trend. Food and beverage companies can fulfill this demand by including detailed and clear information about ingredients to help customers navigate food allergies and dietary preferences.
Overall, labels offer food and beverage manufacturers more branding opportunities. They are a versatile way to flexibly label consumable goods with customizable options specific to your company.
