Abstract

The share of overall consumer spending is falling for food and drink manufacturers and retailers. Companies have been forced to ask themselves why their sectors are not performing as strongly as many others. Food and drink packaging manufacturers will need to offer consumers a much higher level of control over the use of their products, particularly with respect to portioning; allowing multiple use at different moments in time, in different locations and by different individuals with different appetites. Growth Strategies in Packaging Food and Drink to 2007: Identifying the key market sectors, a new management report published by Business Insights, will allow you to identify and react to the latest developments in the food and drink packaging industry. The report will provide you with a comprehensive breakdown and future forecast of each key packaging segment to 2007 backed up by in-depth analysis and relevant and up to-to-date case studies.
