Fast Changing Consumer Preferences Create Opportunities for Growth and Innovation

11/26/2015

PMMI connects end users and suppliers as they adapt to changing consumer demands

Reston, Va.; Nov. 24, 2015 - The impact of changing and diversifying consumer demands were key takeaways from the 2015 State of the Industry: U.S. Packaging Machinery Report, shared by PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, at PACK EXPO Las Vegas 2015. The study highlighted these shifts toward on-the-go and clean-label products while, more than ever, brand owners must also tackle the challenges associated with a growing variety of consumer preferences. As these companies plan ahead for a successful 2016, PMMI provides an unbroken connection among the processing and packaging communities.

Continuous collaboration between consumer goods manufacturers (CPGs) and technology suppliers is necessary to speed the implementation of new processing and packaging solutions. The State of the Industry Report noted that "Improved information on nutrition and growing consumer health consciousness, coupled with increased travel and busy lifestyles, have driven demand for different products. This has led to the growth of indulgent yet healthy foods, convenience foods, different portion sizes (e.g. single-serve packaging), different packaging designs and completely new foods." Consumers' demands are pressing the industry for innovative processing and packaging technologies, and they need them now.

"Speed matters," says Charles D. Yuska, president and CEO, PMMI. "As the pressure mounts for CPGs to adapt their operations, immediate access to solutions providers is critical to their success. That's why it is our number one priority to connect the makers of goods around the world with the suppliers they rely on."

Evolving consumer demands require faster upgrades in innovation and technology on an industry-wide level. PMMI's extensive offerings to address these needs fall into three categories: The PACK EXPO Portfolio of Trade Shows, PMMI Media Group and PMMI Business Drivers, which encompass PMMI's collection of market research reports, training opportunities and educational and networking programs. These three pillars bring the continuously changing processing and packaging industries together to address the most recent challenges.

"We started this year on the heels of launching PMMI Media Group and continued to see significant growth with the first edition of PACK EXPO East, the announcement of ProFood Tech and the debut of Pharma EXPO in Las Vegas," says Yuska. "We continue to create and nurture spaces in which end users and suppliers can connect, work together in solving tough challenges and keep manufacturing moving forward."
