This type of packaging tends to be lighter than rigid packaging. The materials used in snack food packaging encompass plastic, paper, metal, and others. These packaging solutions are utilized in various applications, including bakery snacks, candy and confections, savory snacks, nuts and dried fruits, and other snack food items.

For instance, in August 2021, ready-to-eat product sales saw a significant surge of 9.1%, as reported by Bizom, an India-based retail intelligence platform. Thus, the rising demand for ready-to-eat food is poised to be a driving force for the snack food packaging market.

Factors such as increasing disposable incomes, evolving consumer preferences, robust economic growth, and shifting demographic profiles contribute to the retail market's expansion. Additionally, the rise in internet penetration and the entry of international retailers into various regions further fuel the retail sector's growth. This, in turn, strengthens consumer spending on snack food products. The global retail market is expected to witness substantial growth from $26,178.75 billion in 2022 to $37,665.82 billion in 2027. Consequently, the increasing prevalence of retail is expected to drive the snack food market and, consequently, the snack food packaging market in the forecast period.
