The main stages of the product life cycle are:

Product development stage- researching, developing

Introduction –launching the product

Growth – when sales are increasing at their fastest rate

Maturity – sales are near their highest, but the rate of growth is slowing down, e.g. new competitors in market or saturation

Packaging provides several customers benefits,

economical than purchasing the package components individually.

interests.
