Top Growth Drivers in the Retort Packaging Industry: What's Accelerating the Market?
The global surge in demand for ready meals or ready-to-eat foods is fueling the expansion of the retort packaging market. Ready-to-eat foods are pre-cooked dishes that require no further cooking or preparing before consumption. Retort packaging, notable for its capability to maintain the quality and safety of food products whilst greatly extending their shelf life, has become the go-to method for packing these ready-to-eat products. For example, the United States Department of Agriculture, the country's federal body that regulates aspects of food quality, safety and nutrition labeling, reported that US exports of processed food products summed up to $38 billion in 2022. This signifies a rise of 10.96% from the $34.24 billion accounted in 2021. Additionally, Canada exported processed food products amounting to $11.43 billion, and Mexico's value stood at $5.65 billion in 2022. Thus, the worldwide escalating demand for ready meals or ready-to-eat foods propels the growth of the retort packaging market.
