    Food Product Development Process
    What is Product Development?
    Product development is the process of creating new or modified food
    products. Its primary aim is:

    1. To increase sales.

    2. To maintain a company’s competitiveness in the market.

    Key Requirements for Success


    The product should fill a market gap (meet unmet consumer needs
    or preferences).

    It must stand out so that consumers choose it over similar products.

    Stages

    The food product development process consists of


    following 8 steps
    Idea Generation:
    Brainstorming innovative concepts for new products or improving
    existing ones.

    Evaluation & Screening:


    Assessing the feasibility and potential of ideas to narrow them down
    to the most promising ones.

    Market Research:
    Studying consumer needs, preferences, and market trends to
    validate the product idea.

    Product Specification:

    Defining the technical details of the product, including ingredients,
    size, and nutritional content.

    Feasibility Study:

    Analyzing the technical and financial viability of producing the


    product.

    Production Process Development:


    Designing the manufacturing process for consistent quality and
    efficiency.
