Report Highlights

Health-conscious consumers worldwide are concerned about the high salt and fat content of cheese. Cheese brands should therefore emphasize positive nutritional benefits (such as protein, vitamins, and minerals), and can gain consumer trust by communicating the importance of salt as a flavor enhancer and in controlling bacteria development.

Cheese brands are tapping into the rising appeal of artisan production techniques among consumers who value product tradition and authenticity. Communicating details of the brand's history, traditional production techniques, and appellation systems can help these brands differentiate themselves in a cluttered marketplace.
