We wrap up 2013 amidst news of an up stock market, declining oil prices and renewed consumer spending. And if that’s not enough to make you smile, this issue features the 2013 Top 100 Consumer Goods Registry, which tracks the ups and downs of leaders in our industry. Juxtaposed with our award winners, it’s been a very good year overall for consumer goods! A special mention to Ralph Loura of The Clorox Company, the winner of our first CIO of the Year award, and to Crocs, the only company to ever win two awards from
CGT in one year. We look forward to helping you keep track of exciting developments and new technologies in 2014, whether you are dreaming about the possibilities with big data, TPM or S&OP. You can count on us to connect you with best practices from movers and shakers to make those projects a reality.
