Consumer Goods

Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) companies face unique challenges and opportunities as e-commerce models become integral to their success and direct-to-consumer online sales overturn traditional retail models. Alongside these changes comes an industry-wide trend toward sustainability solutions, including the use of reusable, sustainable, compostable packaging and a desire for companies to reflect sustainable brand values as the popularity of purpose-driven brands increases.

In response, brands must build supply chain resiliency and agility, including the design of regional and tailor-made supply chains focusing on faster and easier delivery options for consumers. All of this transformation must take place while mitigating risks to supply chain reliability, dealing with labor shortages and cyber threats, and responding to shifts in operating models to work from home.
