Market Growth Factors
The Mexico pharmaceutical market demand is experiencing rapid growth, driven by an expanding healthcare system and increasing population demographics such as an expanding older population. In 2024, the older population represented 8.2% of Mexico's population. Citizens in Mexico purchase both prescription and non-prescription drugs. This includes drug packaging that improves drug safety, prolongs shelf life, and improves ease of use for senior citizens in particular. Also increasing demand for regionally sourced packaging materials and scalable, compliant, efficient systems that support known global packaging platforms is demand for regionally manufactured drugs and contract packaging.
Mexican e-commerce sales were forecast to reach USD 47.5 billion in 2024 and USD 176.6 billion in 2033. E-commerce packaging must secure products in shipment, with tamper-clear seals, protection from impact and moisture, and compact design to minimize transport costs, while maintaining the integrity of pharmaceutical products being delivered to e-commerce customers. Packaging should detail how to unpack, re-pack, and transport medications, given that such medications may be online purchased, without face to face interaction with a pharmacist, and online transport across regional temperature changes and rough handling may occur. This is propped up by technology, such as smart tracking and durable parts, and regulatory compliance, that have made direct to consumer models possible while still being price competitive and differentiating brands.
Due to the rise of health infrastructure and the convergence of global pharmaceutical packaging standards, the Mexican pharmaceutical packaging market is growing as it develops. There is a demand for pharmaceutical packaging solutions to fit safety regulations and different therapeutic needs within the market. Technological innovations are enabling drug packaging systems that preserve the quality and usability of the drug, and provide the tracking needed to improve the logistics supply chain. These developments are in response to the growing complexity of the logistics supply chain, caused by the rising demand from the healthcare delivery process and public health initiatives to increase access to medicines.
