Consumer Packaged Goods

Thrive in any economic environment

In the past couple of years, the global economy suffered the uncertainties of a pandemic. Despite this, we witnessed how new businesses played against established brands in the market — and won the hearts of consumers. One thing is noticeable — these agile businesses leveraged digital channels and technology to market their products, sell directly to consumers, source suppliers, and run their operations remotely. They quickly enabled their workforce to collaborate from the safety of their own homes or any location. They were not hindered by the drastic operational shifts that most companies had to struggle with — technology was on their side.

It’s high time that the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) transform for the digital era. And we’re not just talking about having an online store or a mobile app. To remain sustainable and profitable amid uncertain times, CPG companies must turn to technology, cloud, Internet of Things, and AI.

New technologies, new challenges. Under the influence of new technologies, customer behavior is changing continuously. Simply putting up a website, social media pages, and an e-commerce store is not enough. In the CPG industry, the omnichannel experience is rapidly gaining traction and is poised for explosive growth in the next decade. To keep up with these developments, companies need to adopt new technologies and start experimenting with new channels. They also need to leverage data from these channels to improve customer touchpoints, promotion, product innovation, and operations.
Product quality and safety. Quality control is paramount throughout the entire production process, from the intake of raw materials to shipping. These include measuring temperature, checking formulations, or detecting undesired substances.
Same product different packages. In a highly competitive retail market, brands are always looking for new ways to entice and excite their customers. Packaging plays an important role in making a product stand out. With design trends and experimentation the order of the day, being able to quickly switch packaging in production gives manufacturers a clear advantage over competition.
Sustainable products. With mass consumption — and the corresponding production practices that harm the environment — leading us to the brink of a climate crisis, customers have become more discerning about the goods that they buy. They appreciate transparency regarding raw materials, labor, packaging, logistics, and marketing. If you have visibility of each stage of your production cycle, you will be able to demonstrate the weight your company puts on sustainability.
Supply chain resilience. Expect uncertainties in the form of inflation, emergencies, supply shortage, and mobility restrictions. However, consumer goods will always be in demand. You can stand out by keeping your supply chain steady despite many surprises through IoT, blockchain, data, analytics, and open partner networks.

With SAP, CPG companies can prepare for any challenge or risk that may happen on a global scale, in order to ensure the continuity of the flow of goods from your factories to your customers.
