From the Almanac

Fast moving consumer goods are products that are sold quickly and at a relatively low cost.

Retail refers to the sale of goods or services from individuals or businesses to the end-user.

The four gold standards for retail marketing are product, price, place, and promotion.

In the United States, 82% of consumers are willing to share personal data for better customer experience.

Shoppers feel more comfortable buying products from an emptier shelf as it means lots of other people have also bought the product.

Lunch- and dinnertime shoppers are likely to spend more in store (on an empty stomach...).

With more than 6.5 billion consumer reach points, Coca-Cola is the leading fast-moving consumer goods brand in the world.

Economic Outlook

Retail and FMCG are forecast to grow slowly in 2024.

Inflation will weaken retailers' profits.

Its biggest challenges are shortage of personnel.
