The expected growth during this forecast period can be linked to the rise of e-commerce, the surge in globalization and trade, the creation of innovative packaging materials, the proliferation of the plant-based food industry, and the increase in ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages. The forecast period is also likely to witness key trends like advanced processing methods, incorporation of intelligent systems, high-pressure processing (HPP), enhanced food safety measures, and smart labeling.

What Are the Main Catalysts for Growth in the Food Packaging And Processing Market?
The escalating requirement for convenience food is set to drive the expansion of the food packaging and processing market in the future. Convenience food entails meal options that are structured to be fast and simple to make or eat. This rising demand stems from hectic schedules, the quest for expedited meal solutions, and the necessity for swift food preparation in our rapid-paced society. The packaging and processing of these quick meals extends their shelf life, keeps them fresh, and simplifies their preparation time, allowing consumers to relish their ready-to-eat meals effortlessly. An example to note is the forecast in March 2024 by the Bank of Ayudhya Public Company Limited, a commercial bank in Thailand, which reported a projected annual growth of 3.0-4.0% in the domestic market for Thai-produced ready-to-eat food from 2024 to 2026. It was also noted that in 2022, the ready-to-eat food sector achieved a total domestic and export sales volume of 482.4 thousand tons worth USD 2.0 billion. Therefore, this increasing requirement for easily prepared meals is propelling the advancement of the food packaging and processing market.
