A 2018 consumer survey by LEK Consulting forecasts that e-commerce will account for 15%-20% of the food and beverage sector’s overall sales by 2025 — a potential tenfold increase over 2016’s 2% share.

Millennials currently comprise 49% of all people who purchase groceries online, followed closely by Gen X at 39%, and Boomers at 25%.

And, according to “2019 Trends and Advances in Food Packaging and Processing,” a report by PMMI Business Intelligence, this trend is creating change not only in food packaging, but in processing and delivery as well.
