How Meal Kit Companies Target Flexitarians to Promote Plant-Based & Drive Profits

Consumers are increasingly turning towards convenience, as lives get busier and working hours lengthen. This behaviour change is important for customer-focused food companies to consider, as it will affect how consumers approach mealtimes and thus, what they buy and eat.
