The author of the Food Packaging Market Forecast 2014-2024 & Future Prospects for Leading Companies report commented that ‘The food packaging market is closely linked to the economic prosperity of a country and its GDP growth as well as being linked to the developments within the food production industries. Food packaging is also linked very closely to the social changes of a country and the lifestyles led. For example rural countries becoming more urbanised will be a big factor for growth of food packaging in developing economies. When analysing and forecasting the food packaging market these are the key factors one must look at when predicting the trends in the market in the next 10 years. The global food packaging market can be seen to have reached its height in terms of technology and its ability to carry out its primary duty which is that of protecting and extending the life of the foods stuffs within the packaging. Being quite a mature market growth is neither slow nor excessive with an equilibrium being achieved by the meeting of slowing growth in the more developed economies of the west and the burgeoning economies of the east.’
