In this case study, CPL was engaged by an international ingredients company to assess the potential market for wheat bran fibre in a range of applications. CPL’s insightful report included recommendations for its go-to-market strategy.  

The objective of this project was to assist the client in determining whether opportunities exist in the wheat fibre business for its new wheat bran product. The investigation focussed on evaluating the market for wheat fibre in foodstuffs, determining the applications for insoluble wheat fibre within foods, to assess the potential competition from other insoluble fibres and to evaluate market trends within the dietary fibre market generally.

The main content of the study was based on in-house databases and publicly available information (e.g. data from government agencies, patents, scientific journals, trade press, internet etc.).

A number of contacts were made with producers from CPL’s extensive network of contacts.
