Moreover, the recent COVID-19 outbreak has positively impacted the global canned food industry growth. The outbreak has impacted the consumer’s behavior across the globe, with many shoppers dealing with the shortage of food and delivery bottlenecks for feeding themselves and their families. At the forefront of the COVID-19 outbreak, panic buying saw many consumers stockpile items such as beans, soups, and other canned food goods.

The COVID-19 outbreak has led to the shutdown of restaurants and retail shops and forced the people to stay at home, which in turn, has increased the demand for processed food such as canned soups and vegetables. This has rippled through the entire food supply chain. Seeing this increasing demand, the food cans manufacturers are also speeding up their production in order to cater to the increasing demand for canned food. For instance, Crown Holdings, went into the year planning to increase production in the US, and the virus has only added urgency to the effort.

The overall food business is normally steady, however, the rapid rise in the sales of canned and other packaged foods amid the COVID-19 outbreak, when other transportation companies and vegetable producers have been knocked off stride by the virus, has forced manufacturers into a state of high alert. The increasing demand due to the COVID-19 outbreak has presented the opportunity for the growth of the global canned food market in the near future.
