Supply chain challenges for CPG companies
Consumer demand for variety
Modern consumers are highly demanding due to which there is a constant urgency among players in the CPG industry to offer new products that match the changing consumer preferences. This means that CPG companies must focus on more SKUs and shorter product lifecycles. The consequent complexity in product development, sourcing, production and fulfillment will add on to the supply chain challenges faced by CPG companies. Reacting to changes in consumer preferences would mean that the CPG supply chain needs to be agile enough for the required adjustments to be orchestrated end-to-end across the supply chain.
Managers must think strategically about the long-run implications of cost increases and rightly identify ways to capture a competitive advantage. Get in touch with our experts for more insights.
Venturing into new markets
The fastest growing CPG companies are those that choose to compete in the most rapidly growing product categories and geographic territories. Investing in the right markets is one of the key drivers for growth, which comes with its own set of supply chain challenges. Overcoming key supply chain challenges in terms of flexibility will help companies in the consumer packaged goods industry to easily penetrate new markets and create potentially new delivery models and fulfilment channels.
