Organized retail refers to the chain of retail stores that are entirely owned or franchised and managed by a single large corporate entity. The organized retail sector holds a dominant share of the overall retail sales in countries such as the US, the UK, and Canada. A key component of organized retail is packaged products.
The US currently leads the global organized retail sector, with extremely diversified retail chains such as Walmart Inc., Costco Wholesale Corporation, Kroger Co., Home Depot Product Authority, LLC, Target Brands, Inc., and Amazon.com. However, many of these companies have begun expanding their operations to developing countries in Asia, the Middle East, and South America. Therefore, the growth of the organized retail sector in various developing countries such as India, China, and Malaysia is expected to become a major driver for the growth of the global printed carton market during the forecast period.
Packaging companies are focused on developing products with a low carbon footprint, high energy efficiency, and good resistance to chemicals such as solvents and detergents. As the packaging market focuses on sustainability and eco-friendly products, the use of eco-friendly inks and new printing techniques is increasing.
Various governments such as the UK, Germany, and the US have environmental regulations and policies that specifically address ink content. Environmental concerns over sustainability in developed countries such as the United States, France, and Canada are prompting regulators to update standards in the ink industry.

The food and beverage segment was valued at USD 98.28 billion in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. The packaged food and beverage industry is expanding as a result of people's changing eating and lifestyle habits. To entice consumers and minimize damages during transportation, packaged food manufacturers are implementing rigid packaging solutions, which in turn helps fuel the demand for printed cartons by the food and beverage industry.
As secondary packaging, printed cartons are used to package a variety of food and beverage items, including cereals, dry goods, frozen goods, candies and confections, dairy products, chilled meat, wine, juices, beer, carbonated soft drinks, non-carbonated specialty drinks, and others. For instance, producers of hot and ready-to-eat cereals, crackers, cookies, baking and cake mixes, pasta, and cookies opt for printed cartons as packaging to safeguard their goods as they travel through the supply chain and are placed on store shelves. Additionally, manufacturers use aesthetically pleasing packaging to appeal to consumers because seasonal and impulsive shopping have a significant impact on goods like candies and confectionery items. Digital printing technology is becoming more and more in demand as a result. For the food and beverage industry, a number of vendors are concentrating on providing printed cartons made of recycled paper. For instance, Graphic Packaging International introduced PaperSeal trays in February 2020 as a replacement for plastic trays that offer brands and retailers a paperboard option. During the forecast period, these factors are probably going to contribute to the food and beverage sector's expansion in the global printed carton market.

APAC is estimated to contribute 30% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. During the forecast period, APAC is anticipated to hold the largest market share for printed cartons worldwide. APAC's market growth is facilitated by China's position as one of the region's top consumers of printed cartons. During the forecast period, it is anticipated that the food industry will be the main source of demand for printed carton packaging. Increased consumption of goods like food, personal care products, and other consumer goods is a result of the population growth in many APAC nations. This opens up a ton of investment opportunities in the packaging sector, which will fuel the expansion of the printed carton market in the area.
There is a high demand in the retail sector for printed cartons with appealing product designs because packaging contributes to the success of promotional campaigns through aesthetic appeal. The market for printed cartons in the region is also expanding thanks to the booming e-commerce sector, particularly the business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-customer (B2C) segments. The e-commerce industry places a lot of emphasis on packaging because the products are vulnerable to damage while being transported.
This report forecasts the contribution of all the segments to the growth of the market. In addition, we have included the COVID-19 impact and the recovery strategies for each segment. In 2020, the APAC printed carton market faced some difficulties as the COVID-19 outbreak adversely affected many nations in the region, including China, India, South Korea, and Japan. The outbreak had an impact on the overall regional economy as well as the industrial, commercial, and other sectors as well as the supply chain. Many nations declared a state of emergency in order to stop the disease from spreading within the community, which led to the temporary closure of the food and beverage sector as well as other end users. The above end-users' temporary closure reduced the demand for printed cartons. Due to this, the potential market growth in the area is anticipated to be constrained during the forecast period. However, the easing of lockdowns and widespread vaccination campaigns in various APAC nations as well as the focus on other businesses starting up again in end-user industries, like food processing, starting in Q3 2021, led to the gradual growth of the regionally printed cartons. This will further fuel market expansion over the course of the projection period.
The printed carton market report forecasts market growth by revenue at global, regional & country levels and provides an analysis of the latest trends and growth opportunities from 2017 to 2027.
