U.S. export figures of packaging machines show a continuous growth : this is stated in a recent survey carried out by the category association PPMI (www.pmmi.org).
As a matter of fact, 2008 has recorded a sensible increase in the export, with a 9,5% growth: this outcome is led by the emerging countries such as China, India and Latin America (Mexico, Brazil and Venezuela)

Mexico seems to be one of the most attractive marketplaces for the packaging industry.
Quite interesting trends of growth are continuously recorded, and it is estimated that this trend will continue through the upcoming years
Just consider Mexico is currently the most important producer of medicines in the Latin America, classed as 9° at worldwide level.
Moreover, it is the second world market for soft-drinks and the third world manufacturer of beer.
Food industry is also performing very well, with a 4/5% growth estimated for 2009
For these reasons a great attention is given to the upcoming event of the packaging industry, the ExpoPack Show (www.expopack.com.mx), which will take place in Mexico City from the 23rd to the 26th June next.
An appointment which cannot be missed by Ronchi, present in Mexico through its sister company RONCHI DE MEXICO, which will attend through its own booth N. 3209
