FRANCE: RESULTS OF THE PLMA 2000 TRADE FAIR
Article Abstract:
The 14th PLMA private labels trade fair has ended. There were 130 innovative products presented to retailers who are always on the look out for new products - both new food products and new non-food products. The private labels manufacturers have already adopted a drinks container which now interests beverage producers (fruit juice, coffee, chocolate, and soy drink) as well as energy products and health products such as meal substitutes. This packaging suits new snacking behaviour and saves shelf space. The popularity of the trade fair shows that manufacturers, even those manufacturing upmarket products, no longer hesitate to offer articles which are exclusively for retailers.
