The global packaged food market value is likely to jump from US$ 40,79,495 million in 2023 to US$ 62,11,619.50 million by 2033. This estimated growth is expected to be driven by a steady CAGR of 4.3% in global packaged food sales over the next decade.

Packaged food products are gaining prominence in the global landscape as consumers shift toward convenience foods and convenient packaging formats. To beat the market competition, key players in the market are arming themselves with analytics and digital tools. Additionally, key contenders are catering to the demand volatility in a cost-effective manner by boosting network agility via supply-chain digitization and stronger connectivity.

According to recent research, a large share of flexitarians is seeking ways to lower their meat intake. However, about 30% of regular meat eaters are actually following this aspiration. These trends are expected to show their impact on the purchase of packaged products. Particularly in Western Europe, a great share of flexitarians is consuming less or no red meat.

In the marketspace, brand owners are finding convenience opportunity to offer consumers product options that are easy to consume, like single-serve capsules. Companies are coming up with packaging solutions that support single-use systems. An example of this concept is the stand-up pouch, which is easy to open and lightweight.

A key emerging opportunity in this arena is the development of single-use systems in an eco-friendly way. Consequently, market players are working on leveling up their innovation game by eradicating concerning materials out of the packaging solutions sans compromising on packaging functionality or changing their equipment.

“Market players are presented with an innovation challenge to make their product packaging causing lower environmental impact sans compromising on consumer functionality. With better innovation capabilities, key players can strike the right chord between these demands,” says an FMI analyst.
