The Global Chilled Soup Market size is projected to reach USD 9.6 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 7%. The growth of this market can be attributed to the rising demand for convenience food and ready-to-eat foods owing to changing lifestyles and time constraints among consumers. These factors are expected to drive the demand in grocery stores as well as online retail channels over the forecast period. A major factor driving this growth is that people now prefer eating fresh food rather than processed ones, which makes them opt for nutritious products like these instead of canned goods. In addition, most consumers avoid heavily sweetened foods because it can lead to obesity and increased blood pressure levels; thus making chilled soups more popular in terms of health benefits due to their low sugar content.
Chilled Soup is a savory, chilled food item that often includes broth and vegetables. Chilled soups are served cold or at room temperature. These foods may be packaged as pouches, cartons, cups/tubs, or PET bottles with the contents made of vegetable-based liquids combined with water or broth containing meat stock such as beef consomme and chicken consommé.
On the basis of Type, the market is segmented into Pet Bottles, Carton Packaging, Cups/Tubs, and Pouches. PET Bottles accounted for the largest share of this market in 2018 owing to their convenience features such as easy storage (no need for refrigeration), re-sealable lids which prevent spillage during transportation or usage, and durability making them an ideal choice when traveling by air.
Pet bottles are large, cylindrical plastic or glass bottle in which chilled soup is sold. Companies like Nestle and Heinz use this type of packaging for their soups. The advantage to using pet bottles over other types of packaging such as cups or tubs with lids is that they can be resealed after opening so the product lasts longer on store shelves without drying out.
Carton packaging is a perfect solution for transporting and storing food items that are not in liquid form. Carton containers offer an excellent combination of durability, convenience, safety, and sustainability. They have been designed to use minimal material while providing maximum protection against outside elements such as pests, moisture, or other contaminants. The cartons are manufactured from quality-controlled paperboard that enables them to be reused up to five times before they need recycling. Customers can buy soup with the ease of picking it off the shelf without having to go through the tedious process of opening up packets or unscrewing lids every time they want some flavor on their plate.
Cups/Tubs are the most popular type of chilled soup packaging among supermarkets. Cups have a variety of benefits, such as being easier to handle and offering more protection for delicate tastes than other types of packaging. Tubs are typically used in on-premise cafeterias or at self-serve stations where options can be offered with ease by using cups or tubs instead of similar-looking plastic containers.
Pouches (or sachet) are a type of packaging where the product enclosed in a sealed bag. They are popular for products such as coffee, tea, and powdered milk. Pouches are often associated with fruit juice and smoothies, but in recent years chilled soup is becoming more popular. As opposed to cartons or PET bottles, pouches typically only have one serving size per pouch; these single-serving sachets can be easily resealed for later use. Pouch packaging also has the advantage of being easier to carry around than a bulky jug of soup that requires refrigeration.
