Consumer-centric category management

how to increase profits by managing categories based on consumer needs

  • 4 Want to read

In some parts of the world, especially in developing markets, category management today remains a stretch goal -- a new idea full of untapped potential. In other areas, the original eight-step process that emerged in the late 1980's forms the foundation of many companies' approach to category management. In still others, particularly in developed countries like the U.S., the U.K., and others, refinements are being made -- most of them designed to place consumer understanding front and center. New ideas are emerging -- from "trip management" to "aisle management" to "customer management." Whether a new descriptor emerges to replace "category management" is yet to be seen. Even if that does happen, what won't change is the overall objective -- to help retailers and their manufacturer partners succeed by offering the right selection of products that are marketed and merchandised based on a complete understanding of the consumers they are committed to serving.
