The market, valued at USD 21.3 billion in 2022, is expected to surpass USD 38.7 billion by 2032, as the demand for convenient, durable, and aesthetically pleasing packaging solutions continues to rise.

Wallets & Little Cases: A Growing Packaging Solution

Wallets & little cases are increasingly popular for packing a wide range of food and non-food products. The versatile packaging solution is widely used in the food industry for products such as wafers, biscuits, dairy items, smoothies, and other delicacies. Their compactness, lightweight nature, and resistance to external environmental factors make them a preferred choice for manufacturers aiming to extend product shelf life and reduce transportation costs.

In addition, the availability of various closure options such as spouts, zippers, and tear notches is further fueling demand for wallets & little cases, particularly in the Ready-to-Eat (RTE) meals sector. The high penetration of RTE meals, driven by busy lifestyles and the growing number of working individuals, is a key factor in the market’s expansion.
