Disposable Cups Market Future Growth Analysis, Business Demand and Opportunities to 2029

Global sales of disposable cups will total ~600 billion units in 2019, representing a 3.3 percent increase from 2018, according to the latest research from Future Market Insights. The disposable cups market is projected to grow at ~4% CAGR during the period, 2019-2029, driven by affordability and easy availability along with increasing consumption of non-alcoholic beverages which led to proliferation of café retail chains and international coffee shops, especially in developing countries.

Due to growing prominence of the ‘throw away culture, disposable cups are continuously making their way into landfills and marine environment, subsequently raising potential concerns among environmental groups and consumers adopting ‘zero-waste’ culture. Manufacturers who are keeping the innovation quotient high by adopting sustainable solutions are likely to be rewarded in the long run.

Disposable cups have long been an ideal promotional or branding tool for beverage companies such as The Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo, Inc., according to FMI’s analysis. Moreover, rapid normalization of disposability in line with the emergence of ‘convenience’ and ‘on-the-go’ trends, especially in the urban living, goes hand in hand with increasing demand for single-use packaging models such as disposable cups, which remains among the primary boosters to market growth.
