Malnutrition Problem and the Need for a Holistic Solution: A 2026 Outlook

Image
Malnutrition is no longer a problem that can be outrun with isolated interventions. Despite decades of policy action, the world entered 2026 still off-track on almost every nutrition target set under the Sustainable Development Goals.

A child with severe acute malnutrition who misses treatment faces a dramatically elevated risk of death. Yet across Africa, RUTF stockouts have shifted from isolated incidents to systemic crises. In August 2025,  Save the Children  warned that the collapse in nutrition funding was predicted to cut off treatment for 15.6 million people across 18 countries  and that conditions were forecast to deteriorate further into 2026.

Peanut Butter Exporters – The Smarter B2B Solution

Image
  Peanut butter is synonymous with happiness in a jar, but that’s not driving its rapid market growth; the rising demand for nutritional products is. As the world increasingly becomes aware of the health benefits of peanut butter, the global demand is rising at a rapid rate, and so is the need to manufacture and produce enough nut butter to meet these needs. Peanut butter exporters can be the ones to bridge the gap. In 2022, the market share of peanut butter has grown significantly and is believed to increase further. At this juncture, peanut butter could prove to be a lucrative venture if done right. BRIDGING THE GAP Fulfilling an increasing demand for peanut butter has led global brands to seek methods other than manufacturing. Setting up a manufacturing unit, sourcing raw ingredients, and deploying a fully functional production chain and a delivery chain is too long and expensive a process. Businesses are embracing a far more efficient solution – importing peanut butter fr...

Peanut Butter for French Artisan Food Brands: How to Source Premium Private Label from India

Image
  France has a pâtisserie on every corner and a food culture admired around the world. But its peanut butter shelf tells a different story. The premium peanut butter category in France is still developing, dominated by imports and commodity jars with almost no French artisan brand in between. That gap is the opportunity. French artisan food brands that launch now, with small-batch and custom-flavour peanut butter, have a clear runway before the category matures. The real question is where to source a product good enough for the French premium shelf at margins that work. The answer, for a growing number of French brands, is to partner with private label peanut butter manufacturers in India. This guide shows you how.   The French Peanut Butter Market in 2025: Why Now?
