SPINS: Top 10 trend predictions for 2018

Here's a taste of what SPINS industry experts think will disrupt the retail marketplace in 2018.

January 5, 2018

SPINS, Chicago, released its “Top 10 Trend Predictions for 2018.” From key nutrients to special diets to sustainable innovations, here's a taste of what SPINS industry experts think will disrupt the retail marketplace in 2018:

Collagen shape-shifts. With a growing consumer following, collagen will appear in even more categories and products in 2018, and plant-based alternatives to the animal-derived ingredient will emerge, offering collagen's benefit claims to a wider audience.

FODMAP on the map. As awareness of this special diet rises, SPINS expects to see more low-FODMAP foods in the market as well as certifications and label language to help this growing body of shoppers at the shelf.

Shelf-starting certifications. Natural companies will continue to raise the standards. In particular, SPINS will keep an eye on new glyphosate-free and regenerative agriculture certifications like the Certified Grass-Fed Organic program.
