2013 Report on the Metal Can & Container Manufacturing Industry in the US Says Stiff Competition From Other Packaging Manufacturers Will Subdue Revenue Growth
M2 - Thu Aug 08, 9:13AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/xtgvfn/metal_can_and) has announced the addition of the "Metal Can & Container Manufacturing in the US" report to their offering. Demand for plastic bottles and increasing competition from other packaging manufacturers will cause revenue to remain relatively flat over the next five years.
