Sustainable Packaging: Trends in Grocery

Today, more than a third of the food sold in the European Union comes in plastic packaging. Although, the European Commission's shifts in packaging regulation, as well as increasing consumer awareness of environmental issues caused by packaging, promise to drive massive changes in this area.

Kwayga have assembled an expert line-up of speakers for the webinar including Richard Cope, Trends consultant at Mintel, as the keynote speaker. Vivian Loftin, co-founder of Recyda GmbH, and Gary Orr, Chief Commercial Officer & Head of ESG at XDS Brand, will join Mike McGrath, host of the webinar and co-founder of Kwayga, as part of a panel.

The discussions centred around a number of topics that include consumer demand for more sustainable packaging solutions, strategies for producers, and the current legislation around this subject in Europe which has huge impact on both supermarkets and food and beverage manufacturers.
