Environment Analysis• External Analysis
– ECR adapted by FMCGs, best practices by bigger MNCs.– Customer service levels are important to improving trade relations– various enabling technologies introduced and accepted by
distributors, retailers, field sales force, advent of e-commerce– battle for shelf space is a perennial challenge– lack of creativity in in-store promotions– strong presence of regional players in the asia-pacific– competitors are aggressive in promotions, merchandising,
advertising, new brand and packaging introductions and re-launches
– Some FMCG starting to focus on catman– stock availability important to retailers and consumers, consumer
loyalty is determined by availability (for consumers). Service reliability is key.
– consumers look for more value for their money
