Unilever Food Solutions - Helping F&B Operators Tap Into The Rise of Plant-Based Diets in Malaysia

A recent 2022 GlobalData survey revealed that nearly 40% of Malaysians are either flexitarians or low meat eaters.

To help the food service sector in Malaysia better address and tap into this trend, Unilever Food Solutions brought in The Vegetarian Butcher, allowing them to supply the F&B sector with plant-based solutions and ingredients.

We speak to Dhillon Ng, Head of Country with Unilever Food Solutions to learn more about how they’re supporting the food service industry and tap into this trend.
