Dear Wheneverwego, 

Market research of the type you're looking for has been already done.
Unfortunately, it costs a tad more than $200 (Actually, $ 4,200...):
Pouches - Market Size, Market Share, Market Leaders, Demand Forecast,
Sales, Company Profiles, Market Research, Industry Trends
<http://www.freedoniagroup.com/Pouches.html> 

Perhaps you would be able to find this research in a library or to buy
it per page (for $30 a page); you might also want to redefine your
expectations.
