According to SSI Securities Joint Stock Company (SSI), paper packaging consumption in Việt Nam is expected to increase by 12 per cent in 2021-2025 thanks to continuing urbanisation.
SSI forecasts the urbanisation rate, the proportion of the urban population to the total population, in the country will hit 40 per cent in 2024 compared to 37 per cent in 2019. The paper packaging segment also benefits from the rapid growth of Việt Nam's e-commerce.
Analysts forecast that the growth of the plastic packaging segment in 2021 in Việt Nam will depend on spending on food and non-alcoholic beverages.
As for the Asian market, according to analysts, the demand for packaging products will continue to grow and be the main growth driver for the packaging segment in Việt Nam when it comes to exports.
Although packaging is an auxiliary industry for many manufacturing industries, it plays an important role and contributes significantly to the development of the economy. — VNS
