The e-commerce revolution has not only changed the rules for consumer packaged goods companies, it has created a whole new game in which the new coronavirus has only cemented the need for brands to adapt.

In the COVID-19 outbreak, packaging is being recognized for its long-standing performance in upholding food and beverage product safety and offering consumer protection.

Easy to changeover, multi-functional packaging equipment is how most food manufacturers are improving production and meeting consumer demand, according to the 2017 Vision 2025 report, produced by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies.

Home to nearly one-third of the nation’s top consumer packaged goods companies, PACK EXPO East (April 16-18, 2018, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia) will address the trends and challenges driving the food and beverage market. The show will bring together 400 exhibitors and 6,000 industry professionals over 100,000 net square feet of exhibit space.
