Soybeans, Soy Protein and Soyfood Market 18/10/2007 IP and non-GM supply Soy as functional ingredient Novel food product applications Value Creation through Marketing & Communication EU USA Canada Value creation through Innovation and Product Development Soy Protein Products Soyfood Products Similar markets Major drivers and objectives – Value Creation Nutrition & Health Communication Conclusions 2 Why consuming soybean based foods? Different objectives for different stakeholders For the soybean producers = Broadening the market for soybeans For the Soy Ingredient producers = Creating soy products with built-in functionality and properties that can be used in a broad range of food products For the Food & Drink industry = Selling products with an interesting margin For the retailers = Broadening the range of products on offer for the consumer For the Consumers = Adding new food products to the daily consumption pattern Filling the need for tasty foods that offer health as well as convenience = 18/10/2007 3 Soy & Soy Ingredient producers 18/10/2007 Creating soybeans with built-in benefits and adapted to making food ingredients or food products Creating soy products with built-in functionality and properties that can be used in a broad range of food products This requires variety, process and product development as well as application directed market development 4 The Added Value Concept Soybeans: $200-500/ton Soy ingredients: $500 - $2000 / ton Soy loaded food: $5,000 $10,000 per ton soy DM Soy drinks & juices: $20,000 - $50,000 per ton soy DM Soy experience 18/10/2007 5 $100,000 - $300,000 per ton soy DM The Food & Drink Industry Selling products with Added Value and Significant Margin Ideal Margin Management: The real world is not ideal: 18/10/2007 Selling existing food products based on the main nutrition ingredients such as protein, carbohydrates and oils or fats Creating new products that answer consumer demand for taste, convenience and health The answer = INNOVATION Short/Mid-Term: Keeping high margins on existing product range = DIFFICULT Long-Term: Create High-Value Brands broadening the perspective for margin support = INVESTMENT INTENSIVE Finding the extra that gives the possibility to create products with extra margin potential Creating novel product groups that answer the needs of the active consumer of today Soy and soy ingredients can bring functionality as well as health positive messages Roadmap: process and product development as well as application directed market development 6 The Consumer Looking for new opportunities all the time Taste and Convenience are major drivers of demand Health and Balanced Nutrition are valuable Open to new product positions: 18/10/2007 Increasing globalization has broadened access to many unknown products broadening the daily consumption palette Completely new product platforms are possible Trends for vegetarian, organic, health promoting, functional foods create extra opportunities Filling the need for convenient tasty foods that offer health as well as convenience Soy based and soyfood products can bring a perfect answer to this 7 How can soy protein and soy play a key role in fulfilling these different objectives? 18/10/2007 8 Soyfoods and Soy Ingredients 18/10/2007 Traditional soyfoods : tofu, soymilk, whole soy flour, whole dried soybeans, green soybeans, soy sprouts, fermented soyfoods (tempeh, miso, natto and soy sauce) Modern soyfoods (soy protein ingredients): (defatted) soy flour(s), soy concentrate, soy protein isolate, textured soy protein (TSP), soynuts, soy grits Second generation soyfoods: soymilk and drinks, desserts, cheese and yoghurt, ice cream, tofu and veggie burgers, hot dogs and sausages, steaks and roasts, pizza topping, soy mince, snacks and bars, biscuits, breads and cookies 9 Soy Processing 18/10/2007 10 Soy Flour Soluble Carbohydrates 20% Other 10% Dietary Fiber 20% Protein 50% Powders, grits, textured Includes TSF: Textured Soy Flour Market & Applications Highly functional ingredient in baked goods; filler improving water management in products; ingredient in “new” high-soy foods to deliver health benefits to consumers 18/10/2007 11 Soy Protein Concentrate (SPC) Other 7% Dietary Fiber 23% Ethanol/water wash white flakes Acid wash white flakes Protein 70% Powders, functional powders, granular, textured (flakes or crumbles) Functionalised: using (bio)chemical and/or physical processing Includes TSP: Textured Soy Protein Market & Applications Feed: Calf Milk replacement Food: Functional Ingredient for Meat; Meat replacement/extension; Bakery products; Dairy products 18/10/2007 12 Isolated Soy Protein (ISP) Other 10% Protein 90% Powders, frozen granules/fibers Market & Applications Instant Drinks; Infant Formula; functional and highprotein ingredient for almost any type of food product 18/10/2007 13 Textured Soy Protein (TSP) Soy Mince Soy Chunk Fibrous Soy Protein 18/10/2007 14 Structured Soy Meat Analog High Moisture Soy Meat Analog Soy in the EU-25: 38.7 million MT SBO SP Ingr.
