GCC Retort Pouches Market Overview:

The GCC retort pouches market was worth US$ XX Billion in 2022, expanding at a CAGR of X% during 2017-2022. Looking forward, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of around X% during 2023-2028, reaching a value of US$ XX Billion by 2027. Retort pouches are special, flexible plastic pouches that are packed with semi- and fully-cooked food. They are laminated with layers of lightweight plastic and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films, each offering a unique level of protection, making them a suitable choice for consumable products. When compared with glass jars and metal cans, retort pouches can resist intensive pressure and easily survive extremely high temperatures. Additionally, their lightweight PET film prevents the food content from spoilage and contamination caused due to exposure.  They also help enhance shelf life, make the storage and handling of the product convenient, and retain flavors for a prolonged time. In the GCC, retort pouches have become a revolutionized food and beverage packaging for ready-to-eat (RTE) products.

The primary factor driving the retort pouches market in the GCC is the increasing demand for pre-packaged food due to the rising working populace and hectic schedules. This is further supported by the surging population and inflating consumer per capita income. Moreover, the growing awareness regarding the advantageous properties of retort pouches, such as portability, reduced material usage, extended shelf life, and enhanced flavor retention, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the surging demand for advanced packaging solutions, such as retort pouches, rapid urbanization, and shifting dietary preferences towards ready-to-consume and processed food and beverage products are providing a considerable thrust to the market growth. In line with this, key market players are investing heavily in advanced technologies to introduce eco-friendly and recyclable product variants with an extended shelf life to increase their consumer base, which is creating a positive outlook for the market. Besides this, the surging product application in the pharmaceutical sector, increasing research and development (R&D) activities by key players, and the rising demand for preservatives-free products are accelerating the market growth in the region.
