The beauty of success

Household and personal care (HPC) companies face several challenges in today’s multifaceted global marketplace.

These include:

• Limited growth in established markets
• Challenges around realizing value in rapid-growth economies
• Increasingly complex routes to market
• Rising and volatile cost pressures
• Growing pressure to be responsible corporate citizens

Responding to these pressures, leading companies are focusing on the fundamentals, including:

• More rigorous execution around core products in existing markets
• Greater cost reductions to relieve pressure on margins
• Better management of counterparty default risks and supply-chain risk

“In an environment of constant change and spiraling complexity, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the traditional operating model, if not broken, is no longer fit for purpose.”
