ADVANTAGES OF SOUTHEAST ASIAN PACKAGING MARKET

1 GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION

Located between Asia and Oceania, ASEAN connects the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and is one of the most important maritime channels in the world. ASEAN countries boast abundant natural resources and demographic dividend, making Southeast Asia one of the most dynamic and promising regions for economic development in the world.

2 ECONOMIC SCALE

ASEAN currently has a GDP of approximately 3.7 trillion US dollars and a population of over 670 million. It is expected that by 2030, ASEAN will become the world's fourth largest economy.

3 POLICY SUPPORT

In recent years, governments of ASEAN countries have vigorously built industrial and development zones, and launched a large number of tax reduction and exemption policies. Impacted by demographic dividend and low-cost plant construction, the number of enterprises building plants and investing in ASEAN countries has climbed noticeably, leading to a steady increase in demands of the whole packaging industrial chain.
