Hi, I’m Casey with ProFood World, and here are three topics you won’t want to miss for this week.

First, we explored how CPGs can make better use of plant data. Rather than make costly investments in better data collection, this piece offers practical tips for how processors can better identify and utilize data that’s already available.

Next, Puratos USA has opened a new plant in New Jersey, exclusively dedicated to bakery glaze production. It’s the first facility of its kind in the U.S., and its star product Sunset Glaze offers a plant-based alternative to egg wash.

And finally, Walmart is deploying Avery Dennison RFID technology in fresh food categories like bakery, meat, and deli. The digital labels will help Walmart associates to track inventory faster and more accurately and reduce food waste.

You can find each of these stories linked here or on ProFoodWorld.com. And if you’re looking for processing insights on the go, don’t forget to check out the Through the Line Podcast on your favorite provider.
