The turbulent yet exciting FMCG Industry

The Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector is constantly facing various challenges that need rapid restructuring for the sector to remain competitive and survive. Supply chain interruptions have become common, as firms face unpredictable raw material supply, lack of transportation facilities, and accumulation in production processes. Changing consumer preferences are the other hurdle as there is a switch in demand to the healthy, sustainable, and eco-friendly goods. On top of that, adjusting to the legal standards of various countries adds difficulties to the players. Intense rivalry with new entrants into the market starts price wars causing losses in the margins. Furthermore, being innovative in the technology is essential for the firms to take part in the digital movement and eCommerce trends, like those of Amazon, Shopify, and Lazada for the better market penetration.
