Greek Yogurt Thrives & Bakers Take Notice
Anyone who has walked down a grocery aisle in the past year has witnessed the sky rocketing positions that yogurt, and more specifically, Greek Yogurt have been enjoying. As noted below, since 2008 sales have nearly doubled in the yogurt category. This appears to be a durable trend that does not show any signs of slowing in the immediate future. Competition between yogurt brands is at an all time high and the bakery industry has taken notice.
SIS has been developing bake-stable yogurt fillings for bakery use for decades. From Low Water Activity offerings to a full array of Danish-style fillings and toppings, our considerable experience can be brought to bear on any traditional or new product platforms. The market has demanded that we continue to refine our formulations to meet evolving consumer demands for this specific style of yogurt and explore new and innovative ways to include such a powerful market mover across many different snacking platforms. Contact us today about testing a sample of our Greek Yogurt-style fillings and toppings or submit a Sample Request Form so we can get to work on your next exciting project!
"Yogurt sales have increased by 40% since 2008 as consumers continue to demand healthier snack alternatives driven by the popularity of varieties and brands of Greek yogurt products."

“Some of the nation’s largest food companies have cut daily calorie counts by an average of 78 per person, a new study says, more than four times the amount the industry pledged to slash by next year.
The study sponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation found that between 2007 and 2012, the estimated total cut in food product calories from a group of 16 major food companies was in the range of 6.4 trillion.
The 2010 pledge taken by the companies – including General Mills Inc., Campbell Soup Co., ConAgra Foods Inc., Kraft Foods Inc., Kellogg Co., Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo Inc. and Hershey Co. – was to cut 1 trillion calories by 2012 and 1.5 trillion calories by 2015.”
