Stockholm, 7th October, 2025 – Flora Food Group joined over 700 leaders from science, business, and policy at the 2025 Stockholm Food Forum this October, serving as a main partner at the world’s leading platform for food systems transformation.

Held under the theme Engage, Act, Transform, this year’s Forum marked the launch of the new EAT-Lancet 2.0 Commission Report — a landmark, science-based roadmap that outlines how healthier diets and sustainable production can bring the global food system back within planetary boundaries while improving public health outcomes.

Flora Food Group was proud to see the report reaffirm the crucial role that unsaturated plant oils play in healthy, sustainable diets, a scientific endorsement of the company’s mission to make nutritious and delicious food accessible across the world.

At the Forum’s main stage, Herman Betten, Chief Communications and Corporate Affairs Officer at Flora Food Group, underscored the importance of balanced, evidence-based dialogue around nutrition and food processing. He joined a roster of prominent global speakers including Dr. Johan Rockström, Hindou Oumarou Ibrahim, and Benjamin Dousa, as the Forum explored solutions across food innovation, misinformation, climate resilience, and AI.

Flora Food Group’s presence also came to life on the Kitchen Stage, where delegates from across the globe enjoyed dishes featuring Flora Plant Butter and Violife Greek White, a celebration of taste, sustainability and innovation in action.

Flora Food Group was among twelve organisations hosting partner-led sessions at the event, alongside groups such as GAIN, Sodexo, and the Almond Board of California, each helping to transform scientific insight into practical solutions.

The Stockholm Food Forum concluded with strong momentum to accelerate global collaboration and real-world change. The months ahead will see continued efforts to translate the EAT-Lancet 2.0 findings into action across industries, communities, and cities worldwide — an ambition Flora Food Group is proud to support.
