2025 is proving to be a pivotal year for F&B manufacturing. In an era marked by increased raw material costs, fluctuating global tariffs impacting equipment expenses, and intensifying market competition, F&B manufacturers are strategically recalibrating their CAPEX plans towards smart manufacturing solutions.
To save on production costs and inefficiencies, this is a clear emerging trend: the transition towards smarter, sustainable and digitally integrated factories. Leading manufacturers are actively embracing automated and data-driven processes, leveraging the power of cutting-edge technologies including Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, edge computing, hyperspectral imaging, advanced robotics, and more to maintain a competitive edge.
With the global smart manufacturing market expected to reach $506.33 billion by 2027, how are you looking to capitalise on this share?
