Abstract

Introduction
Datamonitor's Food MarketWatch contains news, analysis and opinion from the food industry. It covers all the month's major issues and events in marketing, production, retailing, ingredients and foodservice.

Scope
Insight into the future shape of the market for players at all levels

Expert analysis into the implications of the month's important industry events

All the month's top business stories in headline and summary form

Insight into the structure and competitive position of a key company

Report Highlights
On May 1, ten new states will become members of the European Union, and Poland is the largest. If Poland's large agricultural sector is to have access to the whole EU market, its food producers have to upgrade their facilities and practices. Recent food scares mean that consumers are more demanding than ever for food safety assurances.

In an effort to attract new customers, Ruby Tuesday is focusing on its 'Smart Eating' program and introducing nutritional facts onto its menu. Amid growing controversy over obesity and the ensuing health risks, the company should find that such healthy eating initiatives increase its appeal to dieters and non-dieters alike.
