Low-fat and light
Low-fat products also appeal to healthy-minded consumers.
“With rising obesity levels and the increasing concern among Brazilians about consuming healthier products, the cheese category has the potential to tap into this demand with new lighter versions.”
Polenguinho's turkey-flavored cheese snack range (made by Polenghi, a sister company of France's Groupe Savencia Fromage & Dairy) includes a light version that contains 30% fewer calories than the original.
Meanwhile, Danone-owned La Serenísima recently added low- and no-fat milks to its range sold in Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia.
