This report covers the impact of COVID-19 on this global market

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Pre-Packaged Food Market is growing at a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period. Pre-packaged food is any food product that is prepared, processed, and packaged by manufacturers before being sold to consumers. These foods are typically ready-to-eat or require minimal preparation and come in sealed packages designed to maintain freshness, extend shelf life, and ensure convenience. Pre-packaged foods can include items like canned goods, frozen meals, snacks, beverages, and other products that are sold in containers, boxes, or other forms of packaging. 

Market Dynamics: 

Driver: 

Growing demand for diverse food options

As consumers seek a broader range of flavors and cuisines, manufacturers are responding by developing pre-packaged foods that reflect global culinary trends. This includes offerings from various cultures, allowing consumers to experience international flavors without the need for extensive cooking skills. The inclusion of diverse options caters to adventurous eaters and those interested in multicultural dining experiences

Restraint:

Growing health concerns

Consumer trust in processed foods is declining due to concerns about high sodium, sugar, and preservatives in these products. This can lead to reduced sales for companies that fail to adapt to health-conscious trends. The preference for fresh, minimally processed foods is also shifting, with many prioritizing whole foods over convenience. This trend presents a challenge for manufacturers to compete with the appeal of fresh produce and homemade meals.

Opportunity:

Availability of international cuisines in pre-packaged formats

The introduction of diverse international cuisines in pre-packaged formats has expanded product offerings, catering to a broader audience and attracting consumers who are eager to explore new tastes from home. This diversification attracts consumers who are more adventurous in their eating habits, driving growth in the pre-packaged food sector by encouraging manufacturers to innovate and reflect global culinary trends.

Threat:

Environmental degradation

Heightened awareness of environmental degradation has resulted in stricter regulations regarding packaging materials and waste management. Governments are increasingly enforcing laws aimed at reducing plastic waste and promoting sustainable packaging solutions. Compliance with these regulations can impose additional costs on manufacturers, potentially affecting their profitability and pricing strategies

Covid-19 Impact: 

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the pre-packaged food market. Lockdowns and social distancing measures have led to increased demand for convenient, shelf-stable foods as consumers cook more at home. Prices of storable items like rice and wheat have risen, while perishable foods like onions have seen price drops. Disruptions to supply chains, labor shortages, and trade restrictions have challenged manufacturers. However, the pandemic has also accelerated trends towards healthier, sustainable options as consumers prioritize nutrition

The frozen foods segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The frozen foods is expected to be the largest during the forecast period because frozen foods cater to busy lifestyles with their convenient, easy-to-prepare meal options, driving higher sales in the pre-packaged food market. Their diverse product offerings, including fruits, vegetables, ready meals, and international cuisines, enhance consumer choice and attract health-conscious consumers seeking nutritious frozen options boosting the growth of the market.

The rigid packaging segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The rigid packaging segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period as it offers enhanced product protection by preventing light, air, and moisture exposure, extending shelf life and maintaining freshness for perishable items. This trust in pre-packaged foods contributes to market growth. Additionally, rigid packaging offers convenience, allowing easy stacking, storage, and transportation, appealing to busy consumers seeking quick meal solutions.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to notable shift towards healthier options within the pre-packaged food segment. Consumers are increasingly seeking products that offer nutritional benefits, such as organic and low-calorie options. This trend is prompting manufacturers to innovate and expand their product lines to meet these demands

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period as this region offers a diverse range of pre-packaged foods, including frozen meals, canned goods, and snacks, with international cuisines in pre-packaged formats expanding consumer choice. Distribution channels include supermarkets, convenience stores, and online retail, with e-commerce facilitating easy access.
