In an upcoming episode of The Big Interview podcast series, Milind Bhalerao, managing director, Becker India, speaks in great detail about Becker's investments, ever-expanding portfolio, the company's offerings for the packaging industry, the company's blueprint for 2025, and their six-month old R&D training centre in India. Becker India aims to hit a 25% growth rate this year. Bhalerao states, "The focus in 2025 is investments and expanding our capabilities."  Regarding the packaging industry trends, he says, "The food processing sector has now become one of the fastest growing industries even for us." While eliminating the consideration for degrowth, he emphasises that the company's only mantra remains: "Growth, growth and only growth."

Packaging is often called the silent salesman. The Big Interview series offers viewers a well-rounded understanding of this growing industry—practical insights, case studies, packaging applications across various sectors, and future projects. It aims to bridge the gap between products and customer experiences. According to a market report, the B2B packaging market in India was valued at USD 50.5-billion in 2019 and is anticipated to grow to USD 204.81-billion by 2025, with a CAGR of 26.7% from 2020 to 2025, showcasing its huge potential.

So far, three podcasts have been published on WhatPackaging? YouTube channel while the vision is to create a case study of 25 companies and industry A-listers discussing everything from the evolution of packaging and future trends to regulatory and sustainable considerations.
