PACKAGING INNOVATIONS

WHY PACKAGING?

Two thirds of alcohol buyers indicate paying attention

to package format.

64% pay attention to label design, meaning packaging

is more than simply the thing that holds what’s inside.

When it comes to being satisfied with a product, the

average consumer ranks the products packaging

almost as important as the brand itself.

Over 50% of consumers in one survey are interested in

digitally scanning packaging to find out more

information.
