3. Our approach
Accelerating growth & innovation
• Mixed sample of 28 medically diagnosed intolerants,
active allergen avoiders and healthy lifestylers
• Self recorded 30-45 minute qualitative interviews with pre set questions,
all undertaken in the comfort of their own homes
• Themes and gaps to be addressed identified, key opportunity platforms
based on insight identified for growth
4. Broad Category Insights….
Accelerating growth & innovation
• Keeping costs down – the 20% price hike for the privilege
• Missing categories, multiple store shopping
• Inferior flavour and texture
• Labels lacking clarity and precision to shop quickly and easily
5. Specific Insight Areas for Growth
A number of possible platforms have been identified as having potential…
Insight 1. All in one would make life easier
Insight 2. Snacking out of home is hard
Insight 3. Food service need to up their game
Insight 4. Kids want to belong, not feel special needs
Insight 5: Shopping freefrom is far from normal
Insight 6: Freefrom is not always the healthiest choice.
There are charlatan categories and brands…

6. Insight 1:
All in one would make life easier
• Consider both GF&DF choices…
• People aren't just thinking about one allergen, it
broadens appeal…
• All in one good for generally health conscious people as
well as intolerants…
• If you do both GF and DF, it would still have to taste
great…
7. Insight 1:
All in one would make life easier

8. Insight 2:
Snacking out of home is hard
• Taking food out takes real planning and is inconvenient
• Convenience is a key driver in all food categories, yet
few choices if you choose free from
• Savoury snacking and variety are issues for the snack
category
• What is there that is really handbag friendly?
Convenience again…
10. Insight 3:
Food service need to up their game,
although there are a couple of star players
• Wagamamas have hit the spot…
• Normal places lack choice and alienate
• Service stations lag seriously behind...

12. Insight 4:
Kids want to belong, not feel special needs
• A few new choices, although quite polarising…
• Normal brands are what's missing for kids…
• Parties are a nightmare as mums are out of control
13. Insight 4:
Kids want to belong, not feel special needs

14. Insight 5:
Shopping freefrom is far from normal. It takes more
time and the trade are not keeping up with demand,
unless you shop online
• Online is far better than going from store to store for
each category you want to shop
• One shop simply does not provide all...
• Stocks are always low, better stock control a real issue
15. Insight 5:
Shopping freefrom is far from normal. It takes
more time and the trade are not keeping up with
demand, unless you shop online

16. Insight 6:
Freefrom is not always the healthiest choice.
There are charlatan categories and brands…
• Sugar and sat fats are the challenge
• Is free from really as nutritious is a question too?
• Brands have been spotted as culprits….
• Categories have been singled out as less healthy
• People do not want to take the consequence of reduced
health, unless they are in the 1-2%
• Free from sounds trustworthy, yet isn't always and this
needs to be addressed
17. Insight 6:
Freefrom is not always the healthiest choice.
There are charlatan categories and
brands…
