Retail & CPG:

Retail is the fastest growing sector in the Indian economy. Organized retailing in India will cross the US$ 21.5-billion mark from the current size of US$ 7.5 billion.

CPG players need to anticipate that their retail partners will demand greater collaboration and IT synchronization to form an effective Partnership. Hence, CPG players must ensure that they form demand management and supply chain processes in line with these expectations, in case they are at a process redesign stage.

Large Multi Nationals have already come in and more are coming in to India. Consistently growing GDP in India is a big attraction for all these players. As, each player gets started and realizes that years of Global experience is good enough for supply chain management but not enough for managing the customer expectations in India. With Real state also becoming expensive, Retail players have huge challenges infront of them. Primary driver to this business, getting quality professionals to meet these challenges effectively and managing them in this sector is the first hurdle.
