Fresh Food Packaging Market - Forecasts from 2025 to 2030

The Fresh Food Packaging Market will reach US$119.669 billion in 2030 from US$98.010 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 4.07% during the forecast period.

Food products are packed using several materials to protect them from adverse environmental conditions such as weather adversities, pollution, dust, etc. Packaging of fresh food is also required for the transportation of produce to avoid any physical damage and wastage.

Rising Demand for Fresh Food Packaging Solutions:

The fresh food packaging market is driven by increasing demand for convenience foods and efforts to extend the shelf life of fresh products through innovative packaging. Growing awareness of global warming is pushing companies to adopt cost-effective, biodegradable packaging solutions. However, challenges related to food waste disposal during packaging may hinder market growth. The Asia Pacific region is expected to experience significant growth due to rising disposable incomes and population growth during the forecast period. Key drivers include consumers' shift toward healthier lifestyles and higher purchasing power, boosting demand for products like salad bags, fresh herb packs, chopped vegetable bags, and single-serve salad packaging, which rely on materials such as paper, plastic, and glass. In emerging markets like BRICS and MENA, the preference for convenient, off-the-shelf fresh food items is further fueling the need for fresh food packaging, with the FMCG industry consuming substantial amounts of packaging materials to meet this demand.

Surge in Fresh Food Product Consumption:

The consumption of fresh food products has risen significantly in recent years, driven by population growth, rapid urbanization, increasing disposable incomes, and heightened health awareness among consumers. These factors are boosting the demand for fresh food packaging materials, including plastic, glass, and paperboard, particularly in developing countries like India and China, where demand is expected to continue growing over the forecast period.
