2020 Food & Beverage: Economic and M&A Landscape

The FAO Food Price Index, which tracks monthly changes in theinternational prices of commonly traded food commodities, averaged181.2 points in December 2019, up 12.2% from its December 2018 level.

As new trends continue to gain traction among consumers, companiesmust focus on developing new ingredients and packaging, andminimizing costs. To meet these demands, fruits and vegetables willcontinue to grow in importance. Organic fruits and vegetables are thelargest and the fastest growing segment of the global organic foodmarket, projected to grow at a CAGR of 9% over the forecast period 2019-2024.

Mergers & Acquisitions in the Food & Beverage Space are increasinglydriven by the need for market disruption, rather than market share. Asconsumer preferences continue to trend towards new and healthyproducts, both Strategic and Financial buyers are responding byacquiring newer, smaller, niche brands and products.

Merger & Acquisition (M&A) deal activity in the North American Food &Beverage industry remains strong and 2019 transaction volume was inline with levels seen in 2018. Total transaction volume was 349 and 344in 2018, and 2019, respectively.
