Grocery retailers are having to adapt to this demand, by adding more of these products in their stores, while positioning themselves as 'must visit' locations. Trade tensions and tariffs will loom over the food & drinks industry, and global players will begin to feel the negative effects of this as they pass on higher prices, a by product of trade wars, to consumers.
