From April 13 to 16, Frumen attended Salón Gourmets in Madrid, one of the most relevant events in the food industry in Spain. The purpose of this visit was clear: to gain first-hand insight into emerging high-end product trends, identify evolving quality standards, and stay connected to the real evolution of the market.
As a breadcrumb supplier, we understand that value is not built solely through the product, but through the ability to anticipate industry demands and adapt to them with precision—just as we do with our industrial solutions for the food industry.
Events such as Salón Gourmets provide a key opportunity to observe how the food industry is evolving, particularly within premium and gourmet segments.
For us, as a breadcrumb supplier, this visit has been essential to:
- Identify trends in high-end and value-added products
- Analyze quality standards in final applications
- Observe new uses in horeca and foodservice
- Detect opportunities for improvement in texture, finish, and performance
Direct market observation allows us not only to adapt, but to anticipate with solutions that are better aligned with real customer needs.
During the event, we also had the opportunity to connect with one of our collaborators: a manufacturer of specialized equipment for croquette production, who showcased their solutions at the fair.
This type of collaboration reflects a key reality in today’s food developments: the product cannot be understood without the process.
As a breadcrumb supplier, working alongside machinery manufacturers allows us to:
- Better understand real production conditions
- Adapt our products to different systems and production lines
- Ensure optimal performance in automated processes
- Deliver value in an integrated, not isolated, way
The result is a more complete offering for the customer, where coating and process are fully aligned.
One of the leading products in the horeca environment continues to be the croquette. Its evolution in recent years has raised the level of demand across all components, including coatings. At Salón Gourmets, we observed that:
- More defined and differentiated textures are being sought
- Consistency in finish is key for the professional channel
- Production efficiency is gaining importance over artisanal processes
- Visual appearance and crunchiness remain decisive factors
In this context, the role of the breadcrumb supplier is essential to ensure consistent results, both in small-scale productions and in more industrialized processes.
Beyond innovation, this visit has strengthened our understanding of the market from a qualitative perspective, focused on excellence in the final product.
As a breadcrumb supplier, these types of events help us to:
- Evaluate the positioning of our products against premium standards
- Identify new opportunities in gourmet segments
- Detect improvements in performance and application
- Adapt our offering to real market trends
Our visit has been an opportunity to continue advancing in what truly adds value: deep market knowledge and adaptability.
Strategic vision: proximity and continuous improvement
As a breadcrumb supplier, we remain committed to:
- Being present at key industry events as active visitors
- Analyzing trends from within the market
- Evolving towards higher-quality solutions
- Working in alignment with real customer needs
Because in an increasingly demanding environment, the difference lies in anticipation.
