Linda Gilbert, CEO of EcoFocus Worldwide, will present her findings into why consumers are taking steps to address sustainable food packaging, how eco-healthy lifestyle trends are transformational to packaging, and what recycling and waste management mean from the consumer’s viewpoint in this i2live webcast.

In this exclusive online presentation, Gilbert will offer new results from an ongoing, national consumer survey on the personal choices made by consumers and how packaging must transition to remain relevant and generate sales. This exclusive discussion, based on qualitative and quantitative research, will outline many of the consumer trends that must be addressed by the packaging community.

Gilbert has pinpointed how consumer attitudes and preferences are about to change food packaging as the market matures and grows.  She will reveal the ramifications this will have on packaging in the next few years and offer suggestions on some of the shifts in packaging development and brand sales that must accompany the seismic consumer changes emerging today.

Packaging Strategies Editor/Conference Director Joseph Pryweller will introduce Linda and share a few thoughts on a shifting market that will require major adjustments in packaging and shelf portrayal of products.
