Sensory and Consumer Sciences

Sensory and consumer science are pivotal to product development. The sustainability of every business lies in its ability to create value for its demography of customers. A business which decides to meet its own needs rather than those of customers is only a few steps away from failure. This is why sensory and consumer science is important. It enables businesses analyse the needs pf consumers either through focus group discussions, interviews, surveys, and opinion polls. These are carried out with the aim of receiving feedback which forms the basis of products to be development to meet the specific needs identified. Sensory and consumer science can also be adopted to improve on previously existing products. Food producers leverage on the discipline to produce food products that appeal to the senses (taste, smell, sight) of consumers. That is, food products with high sensory quality including fresh and bright coloured foods with fresh smell and great taste.
