Industry Structure set to change
•
With urbanization and rising income levels, consumption patterns are changing substantially
The increased interaction of India with the developed world is considerably influencing the aesthetic and quality norms of the Indian consumer,
leading to better consumption standards
Greater consumption of branded products is giving unique identity to packaging both in terms of product quality and presentation
•
•
Increase in the demand for quality and convenience-based products is expected to encourage the flexible packaging business
Setting up of organized retail supply chain in India would create demand for packed goods.
