The purpose of the paper is to get an answer, to how consumers behave after purchase with individual packages. Methodology/methods: It targeted the verification of customer behavior in connection to point-of-sale activities and activities of reverse logistics.

The questionnaire was distributed to a total of 2000 end customers who were selected according to their age (720 returned questionnaires, the return rate was 36.00%). Scientific aim: The main objective of the paper is to define the potential relationship between the generating of end-consumers and package handling and package handling for food products.
