CONSUMER PRODUCTS AND RETAIL
Consumer Products and Retail
The age of mass marketing is over as consumer products companies with advanced technology and operations have the capabilities to serve customers globally. Companies can access and manipulate customer and product information at incredible speeds so that product marketing and delivery is more targeted and effective. Players without assets are entering and restructuring the marketplace, thus increasing competition. As a result, consumer products companies face many complex challenges such as growing their brands as well as their presence around the world; maximizing value chain productivity while taking into account the consumer’s changing definition of value; and ensuring a technologically-sound infrastructure as well as developing new technology-enabled business strategies.
In order to create and sustain competitive advantage, an executive should be able to embrace new opportunities, target markets and venues for products; leverage resources across the whole organization and develop partnerships with suppliers to serve customers individually.
