Tailored solutions for changing needs

There is no one GLP-1 consumer. While each experience is different, Givaudan consumer research (2025) revealed distinct stages many of these users go through along the GLP-1 journey. Our unique approach recognises that, as GLP‑1 consumers move through different stages, their nutritional and sensory needs evolve. Givaudan’s integrated portfolio supports brands in addressing each stage with targeted solutions that combine taste, functionality, and enjoyment.
