5. In Africa new consumers and digital are happening
at speed and simultaneously
Retailers will need to open 15
million outlets by 2015 to reach
these new consumers or connect
online
Millions of first time consumers are
there to become loyal to brands
Emerging and developed market
consumers are going digital and social at
the same time

6. The digital world is driving dramatic industry
disintermediation
Converging Moments of
Truth
Digital blurs the distinction between
“selling” and “marketing”. Increasingly
even off line purchase is proceeded by
points of search to drive purchases.
Retail Revolution
Smaller formats emerging in developed
markets and remains key in emerging
markets. New consumers may leap frog
brick & mortar retail. New digital retailers
emerge – merchandising and
promotions will be different.
Monologue to Dialogue
Reinvent Product Marketing
Traditional analog media are one way.
Digital is all about engagement and
interactions leveraging huge amounts
of data to be relevant.
It does not work digitally. Product ranges
should expand exponentially as physical
store constraints disappear and
customization becomes possible.
Extended Enterprise
Focus on Individual
Digital is changing the way CPGs
manage their whole ecosystem
beyond the enterprise – suppliers,
distributors, retailers are all connected
Consumer, influencer, shopper,
employee – they are all digital and
expect specific attention

8. And the impact is significant for
consumer goods companies
Boundaries between the traditional
participants will continue to blur
Manufacturers will become retailers,
distributors and media owners
Shoppers will drive product design
and development

9. Industry trends have influenced the development of
consumer goods companies over the last two decades
They have been on a journey from their
local roots to become global giants.
Global reach, billion dollars brands and global capabilities have
been the targets for the past decade
The alignment and synchronization of the enabling capabilities and
a sustainable business case along the transformation have been
key elements of the Operating model evolution
The journey defined winners and losers (growth, M&A, profit).
Different speed and navigation paths were followed.
Generally this transformational journey has been associated with
increased earnings and profitability - more than double digit growth
in earnings in every year since 1995. However earnings have
outpaced sales growth in all but the last two years.

14. It will revolutionize how consumer goods
companies operate
Disrupt with a digital operating model!
Be deliberately digital. Move digital responses from tactical
to strategic.
Start with the consumer and work back
Must be driven by your commercial business, not
IT department
Integrated across the business
Geography is no longer the basis for management
and organization
Not about digital marketing – about the digital enterprise
