Consumer Goods
The consumer-packaged-goods (CPG) industry’s growth has been nothing short of exhilarating lately. The advent of pandemic observed economic uncertainty, global supply chain disruption, and radical change of consumer behaviour. Coupled with the pressures to drive innovation, transparency and sustainability while being adaptable, the CPG industry was ushered into reviewing drastic changes.
While technology has played a key role in the consumer goods industry’s growth, it will be truly disruptive in the coming times. Brands must find a balance between being innovative and adaptable, without changing too much of the core offerings, while remaining efficient and profitable.
Predict & Prepare for Shifts
As consumer habits change when it comes to product preferences, so do the ways they learn about new brands and products. To capture their fair share of this rapidly growing channel, CPG companies need to up their game with online retailers. They must work in close partnership with retailers to manage their online shelf space, run marketing campaigns, and in general expand the category online. Businesses must invest in tapping social media capabilities to keep pace with the digital consumer.
Although new-product innovation, company expansion beyond the bases, aggressive shaping of portfolios, building global scale along every part of value chain, including R & D, marketing and sales, procurement, manufacturing, and distribution, are all notably contributing to and allowing the big CPG industry players to boost their margins significantly, yet a major implication on the CPG industry’s profit formula is the shift to value.
Winning companies likely, would be those that understand the new consumers, create value-oriented products, and meet their needs. To thrive and survive, CPG companies need to move away from slow, outdated, and complex practices, and transform their business models.
Revisiting Innovation
CPG companies have experienced the urgency to digitize and transform their supply chain system, address evolving customer expectations, and create high quality, compliant and sustainability conscious products. They require strong trace-ability functionalities, data granularity to reduce
operational risk, handle margin pressure, brand consolidation, price sensitivity and properly respond to an adverse event with a targeted recall.
Fact remains, CPG companies will be required to continue to find efficiencies and improve infrastructure to stay competitive. Encountering structural shifts from both the demand and supply sides will be the destiny of CPG companies in coming decades.
