In line with the continuing home-cooking trend, the packaging unit volumes of aluminium/plastic pouches and glass jars used in cooking sauces rose notably in 2020, with further growth in 2021. However, growth slowed in the latter year as some consumers were becoming tired of having to cook more frequently as the pandemic continued into 2021.
Pickled products are a highly traditional food in South Korea, with most Koreans enjoying some type of pickled products with every meal. Pickled products are also very popular snacks, particularly kimchi.
It is crucial for players to offer a wide range of pack sizes, so that consumers have enough options to choose from, depending on their need at the time of purchase. This was particularly true when the pandemic hit the country, when consumers often bought in bulk or opted for mid-sized packs for frequent-use items in order to save money, but equally were likely to opt for small low-priced packs as a result of small homes and households and these products’ low pack prices.
The packaging unit volumes of aluminium/plastic pouches and flexible plastic used in pickled products are expected to rise over the forecast period. Strong demand for kimchi, a traditional Korean dish which falls under picked products, is set to persist in the long term, even after the pandemic, supporting the growth of picked products.
Other plastic bottles is expected to remain the most popular pack type for ketchup in the forecast period, due to offering easy squeezable dispensing. However, the sole growth area in ketchup packaging is expected to be top-down PET bottles with plastic dispensing closures.
