NEW YORK — PLMA’s 2022 “Lunch and Learn” speaker series continues Feb. 24 with a presentation from Kerry about its research on the private label consumer and strategies for new product development.

The live online presentation will be held for one hour at 12:30 p.m. ET and will feature two Kerry executives: Elizabeth Horvath, Vice President of Marketing, and Sarah Miller, Marketing Insights Manager. They will reveal Kerry’s private label consumer research identifying two key private label consumer groups: practical traditionalists and adventure seekers. The session will explore the distinct attitudes of each group and strategies for new product development across food and beverage categories.
