1 STRATEGIC GROWTH OPPORTUNITY ANALYSIS

2 THE CLIENT PROBLEM Our client, a leading CPG player wanted a clear growth strategy for They wanted to understand changing consumer behaviour, market dynamics, and future trends for a specific category so that they could make the right choices across markets, brands, segments etc, to drive profitable growth. THE AQ SOLUTION AQ worked as an analytics partner with the client s strategy team and: Determined the shift in market dynamics by analyzing the past performance of the category for the last 10 years. Identified and sized current opportunities with strong future potential. Forecasted 2025 performance for the client s brand portfolio across geographies and major segments. Our holistic analysis required aggregation of data from varied sources like local Nielsen databases, EuroMonitor, brand health, media, H&E studies, consumer panels, internal company data etc. Data collection had it s own challenges in terms of limited availability, inconsistency across formats, geographies & time periods.

3 THE CLIENT BENEFIT We developed a framework to guide actions. We wove a story that explained the present & future landscape of the category, synergising the information which we had gathered from multiple data sources. We answered questions like: How had the client and category grown in the past? What were the missed opportunities and why were they missed? What were the threats faced? What was the impact of addressing/not addressing these opportunities and threats for the corporations? We defined what the market performance would be if our clients chose to continue on a business as usual agenda without any new disruptions. We helped the client define their category strategy, identify opportunities and size them in order of priority. The insights from these studies were shared with leaders across geographies to drive focussed growth across markets.
