More sustainable packaging might tip some people toward trying a different high-end dog or cat food.
And about half of people who pamper their pets with premium vittles are highly dissatisfied they can’t close the packages better, a top feature for many.
The new findings are from a survey by Mondi packaging and Dow Chemical that deems reclosable packaging, tied to freshness, as “the single biggest opportunity to impress consumers.”
About 75% of consumers say they would feel more favorably toward a brand that made its packaging more sustainable. The same portion says freshness is an important packaging feature.
