Fast-paced Life and Increasing Disposable Income Boost Sales
A fast paced life worldwide on account of demanding jobs and long commutes has led to people opting for easy-peasy ready-to-eat food products. This trend is now fast catching up in highly populated developing nations of India and China, where average disposable income is rising. This in turn is providing a solid boost to the global retort pouch market.
A noticeable trend in the market is the emergence and subsequent popularity of stand-up retort pouches which further drives the consumer interest in this market. “Companies are focusing on elevating their brand image through value added products which are also eye-catching. This is proving beneficial to the market as well,” explains the lead analyst of the TMR report.
Recyclability Problems Hamper Uptake
Factors posing a roadblock to the market, on the other hand, are recyclability and handling issues of retort pouches. The multi-layer materials used for the production of retort pouches take more time to biodegrade and thus harm the environment.
