Craig & Ed sat with Richard Kottmeyer at the Viva Fresh Expo this year to look globally at the future of produce. Their conversation was packed with truly interesting data. If you care about food inflation, new supply chains, consumers “trading down” while creating better and more convenient meals at home, you’ll want to tune in. They consider food security as it relates to Covid and Global Crises, sustainability, and generational impacts. They close by agreeing that it just makes sense to make better choices when it comes to our health and eating habits.
