Each year, tortilla manufacturers from around the country gather at the Tortilla Industry Association’s (TIA) Annual Convention & Trade Exposition in spring and at the TIA Technical Conference in the fall (Click here for information about the 2014 Tech Conference). These events enable attendees to keep up with issues and trends impacting their businesses as well as learn about new and improved ingredients to help them create flavorful products that meet consumer demand.
For ingredient manufacturers that produce ingredients used in tortilla formulations, developing new products and keeping up with consumer trends are just two of the things they do year-round to help their customers be successful. Snack Food & Wholesale Bakery recently asked several leading ingredient manufacturers about current consumer and industry trends impacting tortilla manufacturers and about their newest ingredient offerings for these customers.
