All related procedures and functions required for a particular task are grouped together in a package. Packages have certain advantages -  
1. The first time it is referred in your code, it is loaded in memory. For subsequent reads, it reduces the Disk I/O required. 
2. Packages improve performance and provide easy maintenance.
