With the rapid rise of e-commerce, food delivery, and light industries in Southeast Asia, the regional packaging market is experiencing unprecedented growth opportunities. Businesses are demanding greater product diversity, smaller batch production, and more customized packaging solutions, driving the industry to accelerate innovation and transformation. As a leading trade show dedicated to the Southeast Asian packaging supply chain, WEPACK SOUTHEAST ASIA provides a highly efficient platform for global packaging companies to connect with the Southeast Asian market, tap into emerging business opportunities.

A Booming Market with Rapid Packaging Industry Growth

As Southeast Asia’s largest manufacturing and export hub, Indonesia’s manufacturing output accounts for over 20% of its GDP and serves a consumer market of 600 million across ASEAN. It is one of the fastest-growing regions for paper packaging and eco-friendly materials.

In recent years, Indonesia has attracted significant global investment, particularly in electric vehicles, battery manufacturing, logistics, and packaging. At the same time, the booming e-commerce, delivery, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical sectors have driven increased demand for paper packaging, sustainable packaging, and smart packaging solutions. Reports indicate that over the next five years, the Southeast Asian paper packaging industry is expected to maintain a compound annual growth rate of 7%–9%, with Indonesia showing the greatest growth potential.

Aligned with National Strategies, Backed by Government and Industry Support

WEPACK SOUTHEAST ASIA aligns with the China-ASEAN cooperation strategy and has received strong backing from governments and leading industry associations across the region, including: Asian Corrugated Case Association (ACCA), Malaysia Printers Association (MPA), Federation of Malaysian Manufacturers (FMM), Printing Industries Association of the Philippines (PPP), Corrugated Box Manufacturers’ Association Singapore (CBMA), Malaysia Corrugated Carton Manufacturers Association (MACCMA), Lanka Corrugated Carton Manufacturers Association (LCCMA), Hong Kong Corrugated Paper Manufacturers Association (HKCPMA), Vietnam Packaging Joint Stock Company (VINPAS), Vietnam Packaging Association (VPA) and Taiwan Paper Container Association.

Additionally, the Guangdong Trade Global initiative provides financial subsidies for Guangdong-based enterprises participating in the expo, lowering the cost of international expansion.
