The increasing power of shoppers and consumers will continue to change how the industry operates. New entrants with online expertise, such as Amazon, will continue to disrupt the industry. Also, new supply chains, such as direct to consumer, are changing the industry dynamics. So how do manufacturers and supermarkets compete?This book highlights that a category management mindset is key to being competitive in this challenging environment. The concept of what category management is explained plus why manufacturers and supermarkets should adopt this thinking. Finally, a simple model is presented to illustrate how category management works.Category Management 2020 is available in e-book and paperback exclusively from Amazon.
