	The International Review of Food Science and Technology Edited by Peter Berry Ottaway, BSc, CBiol, MIBiol, FIFST, FRSH, FRIPHH

The growing global food and beverage industry is worth more than $2000 billion in annual sales, and as food and beverage companies strive to respond to changing consumer eating trends, and manage the critical issues of ingredient prices, shorter product life cycles and the effects of consolidation within the industry, investment in new flavours and ingredients, equipment and machinery, and services is at an all time high.

However, product development and production teams are under increasing pressure to invest wisely. R&D is largely responsible for the selection of ingredients used in formulation, and Plant Operations and Engineering Departments specify new processing and packaging equipment, but all job functions actively participate in the final selection of suppliers. Collaborative decision-making by cross-functional teams is now the norm, and it is essential, therefore, to influence all members of the buying team. Doing so maximises the chances of your products being recommended, specified and ultimately purchased rather than being rejected by poorly informed team members.

Since The International Review of Food Science and Technology was launched, the most powerful buyers and specifiers within the world’s leading food and beverage companies have used the publication to keep abreast of the latest technical and scientific developments affecting the industry.

Drawing on the expertise of the worlds leading authorities in product conception, positioning, formulation, processing, and packaging, the publication reviews both the current and emerging technologies that will enable food processors to better cater to changing consumer preferences, and bring more new products to market faster and more cost effectively.

Editorial will include technical papers and case studies, which have been written specifically for the project by leading international food and beverage companies, food science and technology organisations, and key suppliers.

The International Review of Food science and Technology is an official publication for The International Union of Food Science and Technology (IUFoST).

IUFoST is a voluntary, non-profit association of national food science and technology organisations in more than 58 countries worldwide. Members include The Royal Society / UKFFoST in the UK, Groupement Interet Scientifique Recherche Industrie Alimentaire in France, The Italian Association of Food Technology (AITA) in Italy, The National Committee of IUFoST of Germany, and The Institute of Food Technologists in the USA.

As the sole global food science and technology organisation, IUFOST fosters co-operation and the exchange of scientific and technical information between the world’s top food scientists and technologists, and product development and production specialists within the leading food and beverage companies in all member nations.

One of IUFoST’s key objectives is to advance technology in food and beverage product formulation, processing and packaging by holding regular conferences, technical symposia, workshops, The World Congress of Food Science, which is held every two years, and through it’s official publication: The International Review of Food Science and Technology.
