Fiber Based, Bioplastic, Ready Meal Trays are the New Winning Imperative

The market for ready meal trays appears to be fragmented with the existence of a number of businesses, and competition is growing fiercely with all businesses concentrating on enhancing their market position. The increase in online food delivery applications and the increased use of bioplastics are factors that are poised to provide huge opportunities for competitors. Manufacturers have conducted a number of marketing strategies to expand their geographical reaches, such as product development, mergers and acquisitions, and alliances. For example, packaging and labelling company Huhtamäki partnered with U.K. supermarket chain Waitrose & Partners to develop fiber based ready meal trays. Companies in the market for rigid plastic food trays are increasingly using bioplastics due to increasing environmental and health issues caused by the use of plastics.
