Background
Our 4th annual 'Global powers of consumer products' report identifies the 250 largest consumer products companies around the world.
Key findings
Like its companion retailing report, it examines major trends in this sector, looks at the global economic context in which consumer products (CP) companies operate, and analyzes the companies by product sector. This year’s edition also includes a special section on M&A. Trends discussed in the report include:
- The increasing importance of regulation as a driver of strategy for CP companies
- The potential impact of exchange rate volatility, rising commodity prices, and changing fiscal policies
- The need for CP companies to innovate in order to reach both the aging populations in many countries and the young middle classes in emerging economies.
