APAC and LATAM Canned Preserved Food Market Fueled by Convenience-oriented Lifestyles

The primary growth driver for the APAC and LATAM canned preserved food market is the growing appeal of consumerist convenience.

A bacterial disease that can cause severe illness and even prove to be fatal, botulism is an illness that can be caused by eating raw or undercooked foods. The same reason is also responsible for multiple other bacterial infections that may even be life-threatening.
