The e-commerce revolution has not only changed the rules for consumer packaged goods companies, it has created a whole new game in which the new coronavirus has only cemented the need for brands to adapt.
In the COVID-19 outbreak, packaging is being recognized for its long-standing performance in upholding food and beverage product safety and offering consumer protection.
Located near one-third of the nation’s top consumer packaged goods companies, PACK EXPO East (March 3-5, 2020, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Philadelphia) will allow food and beverage manufacturers to explore the latest packaging technologies and spend quality time discussing solutions with leading suppliers and industry thought leaders.
Expiration dates, packaging conditions, and product look, feel and taste are all considerations in consumer purchase decisions when reaching for meat and poultry.

As brand manufacturers continue to source from an ever-growing list of ingredients and suppliers, food is now the fourth most valuable counterfeit market, according to the 2016 Brand Protection and Product Traceability Market Research Report.
