Three out of every four foodservice packaging manufacturers in Europe expect sales volumes in 2007 to be higher than last year, and 50% of companies are forecasting better profits.

The report shows that two in three European companies surveyed expect to purchase new equipment this year, with just over half also expanding their premises.
