Food Packaging CONSIDERATIONS

Erin

The Foodservice Packaging Institute (FPI) recently published its 14th annual Trends Report, which pointed to convenience stores as a growth segment for food packaging as they continue to widen their foodservice offerings.

FPI noted that survey respondents are seeing growing interest in off-premises dining, including demand for drivethrough and curbside pickup. Having the right type of packaging can help on-the-go foods better appeal to customers, preserve freshness, ensure safety and make sure food products hold up well during delivery or dashboard dining.
