Smurfit Kappa white paper about shelf ready packaging

09 December 2014

A white paper published by Smurfit Kappa reveals that a significant opportunity is being missed by brands fighting for shopper attention in supermarkets. Despite 76% of purchase decisions being made by shoppers in-store, brands are often failing to seize upon the powerful marketing opportunity it represents.
In particular, many are missing out on the growing trend towards Shelf-Ready Packaging as a measurable way to influence shoppers directly at the point-of-purchase. Smurfit Kappa found that up to 40% of a product viewed on-shelf can be made up of secondary packaging, a marketing channel which often falls outside the radar of brand teams (Press Release Smurfit Kappa, 27 November 2014).
