South Africa Packaging Market Size Set to Touch USD 7.03 Billion by 2029
South Africa packaging market is flourishing because of an increasingly high demand for packaging materials and products from the thriving e-commerce sector to meet the needs from rapidly growing population in the country’s urban areas.
BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the South Africa packaging market size at USD 4.67 billion in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects South Africa packaging market size to grow at a significant CAGR of 7.05% reaching a value of USD 7.03 billion by 2029. Major growth drivers for the South Africa packaging market include population growth and rapid urbanization, changing consumer lifestyles, and increasing industrial activities. The surge in household disposable income is driving demand for convenient food items, propelling the fresh food packaging market. According to the South African Reserve Bank, the country's households had an average disposable income of ZAR 50,000 (USD 2,756.22) in 2021, up from ZAR 47,830 (USD 2,636) in 2020. Also, urbanization and mobility trends are pushing the use of small packs and multipacks, creating opportunities for brand switching among manufacturers and saving shelf space for traders. Increased urbanization and health awareness have also boosted the consumption of food, beverages, and alcohol, leading to varying packaging trends, including the use of glass containers and bottles. As of May 2022, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for food and non-alcoholic beverages in South Africa is at 105.5 points, up 7.4 points from the previous year. However, changing consumer preferences and market trends is anticipated to restrain the overall market growth during the period in analysis.
