from the manufacturing floor to the store shelf to the kitchen pantry

8. Packaging should be
more than a product “container”
100% of shoppers interact
with a brand’s packaging.
So every touch is an
opportunity for that brand
to make a connection, build
loyalty and drive sales.

9. Packaging innovation should be
grounded in meaningful insights
Insights come from many
sources – consumers,
customers, retailers and
markets. We build on these
insights to ensure we’re
solving the right problems
in the right way.
