Imagine the delicious aroma of your favourite family recipe simmering on the stove.

For consumers around the world, savoury foods rhyme with comfort foods, but demand for healthier, yet still comforting, options continues to rise. Constant innovation in savoury taste makes meeting the demands of today possible.

Healthy, tasty, convenient

While there have been dramatic improvements in convenience foods over the past three to four decades, consumers have high expectations when it comes to taste and authenticity.

Health and wellness trends in the savoury category are driven by a need for healthier options that are plant-based and/or lower in saltfat and sugar. And, while these are now expected by consumers, there also remains an expectation for great taste.

Givaudan’s savoury experts are solely focused on bringing superior taste experiences to packaged foods and snacks, from plant-based burgers to chips, opening waves of opportunities to our customers, helping them to meet consumer needs and demands.

It takes a combination of consumer insights, culinary and technical skills, years of experience, an innovative mindset, and an amazing product portfolio to make this happen.

Plant Attitude

Consumers’ shift to plant-based products in recent years has been astounding – a movement from niche to mainstream in a short period of time. Our focus on alternative proteins started many years ago, so as interest and demand grew, we were positioned and ready to help our customers make great products.

Plant Attitude is our approach to the alternative protein movement across all categories, including those in savoury, such as plant-based meat alternatives and plant-based fish and seafood.

We’re pushing the boundaries, making sure that consumers are satisfied with the tastefulness and healthfulness of their plant-based eating experience.
