The rising demand for on-the-go food and beverage products is driving the growth of the spouted pouch market. On-the-go products are convenient items designed for consumption outside traditional dining settings, such as at work, during travel, or while engaging in other activities. This demand is fueled by busy lifestyles, urbanization, and consumer preference for convenience. Spouted pouches cater to this need with their portable, resealable design, allowing easy carrying, pouring, and consumption without spills. For instance, in March 2025, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), Australian supermarkets, grocery stores, convenience stores, and specialty food stores sold approximately 15.3 million tonnes of food and non-alcoholic beverages in 2023-24, representing a 3.5% increase (510,500 tonnes) compared to 2022-23. Therefore, the growing demand for on-the-go food and beverages is propelling the spouted pouch market.

Major companies in the spouted pouches market are increasingly focused on developing innovative packaging technologies to minimize environmental impact and enhance recyclability. These pouches integrate advanced features, materials, or designs aimed at improving functionality, sustainability, convenience, and attractiveness across various industries. For example, in February 2024, Amcor plc, an Australian packaging company, collaborated with Stonyfield Organic, a US-based dairy products producer, to introduce the first-ever all-polyethylene (PE) spouted pouch. This pioneering packaging solution utilizes Amcor's AmPrima Plus, an all-PE film optimized for recyclability, along with the Vizi cap from Cheer Pack North America. The new pouch replaces Stonyfield Organic's previous multilayered packaging with an environmentally friendly design for its YoBaby refrigerated yogurt. This advancement offers enhanced recyclability, reduced plastic usage, and improved production compatibility, representing a significant stride toward a more sustainable future in packaging.

In April 2025, Amcor plc, a Switzerland-based provider of flexible and rigid packaging solutions for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, medical, home, and personal-care products, acquired Berry Global Group, Inc., a U.S.-based provider of innovative packaging solutions, for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Amcor aims to expand its global footprint and diversify its product portfolio by combining flexible films, rigid containers, closures, and dispensing packaging. The deal positions Amcor as a leading global provider of consumer and healthcare packaging solutions, leveraging Berry Global’s expertise in designing and manufacturing flexible and rigid packaging.
