Why are Stevia buyers, sellers, regulators & F&B Executives making their way to Stevia World Europe in Frankfurt on 18-Nov-2009?
To stay up to speed with the latest developments as the stevia industry prepares for wider take-up in Europe.
IN September 2009, France gave its approval for Stevia , joining Switzerland & Turkey, and paving the way for the rest of Europe to follow soon.
Many food, beverage, pharmaceutical & confectionery companies across Europe are showing keen interest in the all natural, zero-calorie stevia sweeteners for food, beverage and health supplements formulations.
In the USA, newer alternative sweetener demand is expected to exceed US$1.3 Billion in 2013, and Stevia is fast becoming the darling of US F&B processors and consumers. Stevia Sweeteners (in particular Reb A or Rebiana) have already taken about 10 per cent of the US consumer market for tabletop sugar substitutes, only nine months after getting GRAS status according to a recent report by the Financial Times.
The bottom line? In this market dominated by high intensity artificial sweeteners, differentiating your product with natural claims is the key to boosting sales and product profiles. Stevia Sweeteners, including Rebaudioside A (Reb A) are the Big Change for the sweetener market impacting not only other high intensity zero-calorie sweeteners but also the sugar market!

Robert Jonsson, a partner at Ingredient Marketing International, wrote a detailed report outlining his experience at Stevia World Europe. We are happy to present part 1 of this detailed report, where he outlines the highlights of the conference...
The Stevia World team of the well-known Singapore based conference organizer Centre for Management Technology (CMT) successfully launched the European version of their global Stevia World series of conferences to the food & beverage industry on November 18 in Frankfurt.
The event was a runaway success with delegates participating from not only Europe, but also virtually all parts of the world, demonstrating the attraction of the Stevia World Europe program and the immense interest in this emerging high-intensity sweetener.
After four GRAS approvals in the US early this year stevia extract has already captured 11% of the US tabletop market within the same number of months after FDA approval. This is a breathtaking pace of market penetration by any historical standards in such a competitive market segment. Should this soon repeat itself in other segments of the market, stevia extract is set to open a new chapter in the world of high intensity sweeteners. Consumers and industry alike are quickly recognizing stevia extract as being the missing link in the sweetener world between zero calories, taste and naturalness.
In Frankfurt Stevia World Europe’s comprehensive program provided delegates with a profound insight into the features and benefits of stevia extract within a one-day time frame. High caliber speakers from all over the world managed to bring a complex message across with simplicity and clarity without being superficial.
Conference chairman Mr. Angus Flood, Head Intl. Marketing at Pure Circle in his legendary freewheeling style managed to give the event an easygoing and relaxed atmosphere despite the seriousness of the topics.
The conference was honored by the presence of the three global stevia pioneers known by insiders as the “Asian Father of Stevia” Mr. Toyoshige Morita, the “American Father of Stevia” Mr. James A. May and the “European Father of Stevia” Dr. Jan Geuns.
If there would be a “Son of Stevia”, the title doubtless would to go to conference panelist Mr. Joel Perret of the GreenSweet Company who thanks to his incredible tenacity and optimism has recently prompted the French AFFSA authorities to approve stevia extract as a high-intensity sweetener. Considering the hurdles involved, this is a monumental achievement and pivotal for the advancement of stevia to finally obtain the long awaited and much deserved European wide approval.
Mr. Perret’s admirable capability in explaining complicated matters in a simple way must apparently have had a convincing effect even on French regulators. During this conference he skillfully demonstrated his art by uncovering the secrets of stevia extraction to the audience in 30 minutes.
The conference program which was tailored for the European audience provided delegates with answers to “all you wanted to know about stevia, but never had anybody to ask”. It covered market analysis, regulatory, product quality, cultivation, flavor masking & sweetness enhancement and Asian marketing experiences.
It closed with a panel discussion about the future of stevia, featuring executives from Nestlé, Firmenich, PureCircle, Sweet Green Fields and Wisdom Natural Brands.

The second edition of the highly successful Stevia World 2009 conference, 2nd Stevia World will convene in Frankfurt on 18 November 2009.
Stevia World 2009, the world’s first international Stevia Industry conference, welcomed participation from over 150 key Stevia stakeholders from 31 countries in May 2009. Supported and sponsored by leading Stevia producers including Pure Circle, GLG Life Tech Corporation & Stevia Paraguay, and Stevia lobby associations like EUSTAS and American Botanical Council (ABC), the conference was a landmark event in the global stevia industry.
2nd Stevia World aims to address key issues dominating the global stevia industry today, spotlighting key Stevia regulatory developments. After the US FDA recognised high purity Reb A from key producers as ‘Generally Recognised as Safe’ (GRAS), the global market is now holding its breath for approval from European Food Safety Association (EFSA). Currently, Stevia is permitted neither as a food ingredient nor as a supplement in Europe, except in France, Switzerland and Turkey.
2nd Stevia World will also present a global stevia market update, focusing on the rapidly expanding American marketplace where stevia is still considered a brand new entry, overview consumer perceptions of stevia, and the latest developments in flavour masking solutions. Attendees will also gain perspectives on responses from other competing high-intensity sweeteners in the global sweetener marketplace and their potential impact on Stevia demand.
Beyond end-use markets and regulatory issues, the conference will also touch on Stevia cultivation, management, investment, processing, refining, transportation and logistics.

Ora che la stevia e il rebaudioside A (Reb A) si stanno affermando come dolcificanti ampiamente diffusi, il settore globale della stevia si trova a dover far fronte a problematiche nuove e complesse
Tali problematiche sono illustrate in un documento di sintesi pubblicato in previsione del vertice Stevia World Europe che è disponibile all’indirizzo www.steviaworldforum.com
FRANCOFORTE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Il settore globale della stevia ha registrato un’attività intensa nel 2009, a seguito del rilascio da parte dell’ente statunitense preposto al controllo dei farmaci e degli alimenti (Food and Drug Administration, FDA) di una lettera di non obiezione alla classificazione della stevia come prodotto considerato generalmente sicuro (generally recognized as safe, GRAS) nel dicembre del 2008, cui ha poi fatto seguito l’approvazione da parte del governo francese degli estratti di stevia contenenti rebaudioside A (Reb A) con un grado di purezza del 97%. Secondo un nuovo documento di sintesi pubblicato in previsione del vertice Stevia World Europe tale incremento dell’attività avrebbe dato origine a 7 questioni chiave.

Participants at Stevia World 2009
With plans gaining speed for Stevia World Europe on 18 November in Frankfurt, we revisit the success of Stevia World 2009, which convened in May and attracted participation from over 150 key Stevia stakeholders from 31 countries.
As the world’s first Stevia Industry conference, Stevia World 2009 generated a lot of buzz in the media, and among the industry. The world’s largest Stevia producing companies,the industry’s most influential organizations, and the sector’s most widely read publications backed the conference as sponsors, supporting organizations and media partners.
Did the conference live up to its expectations? Judging by the feedback we received from most of the 150 conference participants, the inaugural Stevia World 2009 has exceeded expectations.
In fact, almost everyone we spoke to used terms like “Very Good", "Excellent" or even "Marvellous" to describe their experience at the conference.
Many cited information gathering as the most valuable part of their experience. A researcher from Nestlé’s R&D Center summed up these views when he said, “Stevia World 2009was a knowledge intensive conference featuring key international stevia players!”
His views were echoed by many others, who went as far as detailing the sessions that were of highest value to them. A Sales Manager at PureCircle felt, “Granular’s presentation on Sustainable & Environmentally Friendly Stevia Processing” was of great value for his line of work. A key representative from Chengdu’s Wagott Pharmaceuticals said he found the sessions on “growing and marketing stevia” very useful. Others, like the Section Manager at Japan’s Chori Ltd said he, “found the focus on regulatory authorisation of stevia very useful!”
Stevia World 2009 was also a truly international event that opened up some very valuable networking opportunities for delegates.
A participant from the Univ. of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences Vienna shared, “Exchanging emails and meeting people at the conference was a valuable experience for me.” A Green Valley Stevia representative echoed these views when he said, “I had a good experience establishing my network in the global stevia community.”
Some participants also shared their vision for the global stevia industry after the conference. The delegate from Marubeni Corp said, “The conference made me realise that Stevia now stands at the door of a great future!” Others, like the participant from Nippon Paint Chemicals said, “I'm keen on finding out more about how we can increase the number of 'Stevia Approved' countries.”
On that note, stay tuned for our Stevia World Europe conference. Held at a critical juncture, when European regulators deliberate on approving Stevia as a food ingredient, the conference will discuss:
- The status of Europe-wide approval for Stevia
-The latest in flavor masking innovations
- Stevia’s potential to emerge as market leader in the global sweetener markets
- The American Market experience and consumer perceptions.
