10 Oct 2019 --- The plant-based trend is boosting the almond business globally, particularly with an increased interest in almond milk, almond flour and almond protein, says Bill Morecraft Jr, Senior Vice President, Global Ingredients Division at Blue Diamond Growers. Speaking to NutritionInsight from the floor of Anuga 2019, Morecraft highlighted how the plant-based trend is driving the company’s growth and how the snacking trend is also adding to it, especially in Europe. The company recently inaugurated a new processing facility in California, US, and also expects to see the proliferation of its business in Japan, in light of a recent US-Japan trade agreement.
