Score lines are formed on long, band-shaped package material M while the package material M is fed from package-material roll R. Then, a spout attachment hole is formed in a portion corresponding to a top gusset section of a pouch P. Then, the package material M is folded in a width direction of the package material so that a conveying direction of the package material M is aligned with a width direction of the pouch. Then, a spout S is attached to the spout attachment hole formed in the portion of the folded package material M which corresponds to the top gusset section. Then, a portion corresponding to a peripheral edge of the top gusset section of the pouch P and a portion corresponding to a top edge of a body section of the pouch P are heat-sealed to each other, and the package material M is cut in the width direction of the package material. Lastly, portions corresponding to side edges of the body section of the pouch P are heat-sealed to each other, and a portion corresponding to a peripheral edge of a bottom gusset section and a portion corresponding to a peripheral edge of a bottom end portion of the body section are heat-sealed to each other. Then, the heat-sealed portions formed at the portions corresponding to the side edges of the body section of the pouch P are cut so that a spouted pouch package SP is released.
