Healthy foods, without preservatives or additives, have been a trend in the food industry in recent times (causing a change in consumer habits). The need to make the most of our time, convenience, speed and the desire to have a healthy and balanced diet has led the restaurant sector to develop lighter menu proposals, including salad in all its varieties, as the star dish. .
But not only the restaurant sector has benefited from the growth of this market niche, but many companies have known how to take advantage of this opportunity to innovate and launch prepared, ready-to-eat salads on the market.
According to data from the market research and intelligence consultancy Hamilton, 40% of the population has purchased ready-to-eat salads (so-called fresh-cut salads) in the last 3 months.
