AbstractDespite the awareness of possible new consumption occasions for convenience products, the main focus for manufacturers is expected to be in the 'on-the-go' occasion. On-the-move food and drinks - the growing sub sector of on-the-go, is predicted to have a combined market value in Europe of a staggering 67,415 million in 2006. Next Generation Convenience Food and Drinks, Volume 2: Occasion, Location and 'On-The-Go' will provide you with a complete analysis of the convenience industry by consumption occasion, manufacturer distribution strategies and, more specifically, 'on-the-move' consumption, identified by many as the key industry sector over the next five years.
