Randy Godet
Sr. VP of Research, Food & BeverageFood & Beverage Spending Is Evolving Fast
Rising costs from steel tariffs to packaging materials are squeezing margins across the food & beverage industry. Companies are shifting away from new builds and focusing on high-ROI projects that optimize existing assets.
Expect Fewer Grassroots Projects. More M&A.
Greenfield developments are slowing. Instead, we're seeing a surge in acquisitions as firms look to buy market share rather than build, especially in regions where permitting and construction delays are high.
Automation Is Driving OPEX Spend
From labor shortages to rising costs, companies are investing in automation to improve efficiency and reduce reliance on human labor. Expect growing adoption of AI and data-driven systems for processing and packaging.
Bright Spots: Ready-to-Drink Beverages & Bakery
While some segments are cooling off like biofuels and alternative proteins, ready-to-drink beverages and baked goods are emerging as global growth drivers, especially in regions focused on food security.
