What Is The Crucial Factor Driving The Global Flexible Paper Packaging Market?
The surge in the need for processed food is projected to boost the advancement of the flexible paper packaging market. Processed food, which undergoes numerous mechanical or chemical procedures for preservation or modification, typically contains multiple ingredients and is often sold in bags or boxes. Flexible paper packaging, which safeguards these popular processed food items from physical, chemical, and biological contaminants or tampering, is broadly utilized. For example, the National Association of Convenience Stores Company, a US-based business association, disclosed in April 2024 that total convenience industry sales hit $859.8 billion in 2023. In-store sales contributed $327.6 billion, with an average basket size increase of 3.7%to $7.80, while foodservice sales formed 26.9% of in-store sales, up by 1.3 percentage points from the preceding year. As a result, the heightened demand for processed food is propelling the growth of the flexible paper packaging market.
