Sustainability: Then and Now
卡塔尔世界杯预选赛时间While it's not the case today, brands can remember a time when consumers were not as interested inpaying morefor a package with sustainable features.Sean Riley ofFood Engineeringmagazine shares that this was a result of the 2008 economic downturn.Price sensitivity across the board pressured manufacturers to cut costs.
The consumer demand for sustainable options is now an expectation for younger people like Sustainable Stacy.2022年世界杯英格兰阵容As Riley stated in Food Engineering, "… millennials will help to push this trend further for the foreseeable future as they purposefully seek out products with recyclable or renewable packaging."
卡塔尔世界杯预选赛时间Mintel's research indicates that 72 percent of today's global consumers would pay more for packaging with sustainability benefits.卡塔尔世界杯预选赛时间Additionally, 29 percent of US adult Gen Z consumers, ages 18-22 and just entering the workforce, specifically shop for products that are environmentally friendly.We predict this number will only grow as their buying power increases.
