What you need to know

The food and beverage packaging sector has been impacted by several factors, including environmental issues, health concerns and changes in family structures and consumption behaviors. Brazil produces high volumes of general and food waste. In addition, the recycling of solid waste is very limited in the country.

The new food and drink labeling rules and the growing incidence of certain health problems, on the other hand, have influenced how Brazilians understand the label information. The changes in family size and structure suggest brands and companies need to offer a greater variety of packaging sizes and formats.
