Corporate Governance

To remain relevant in 2018 and beyond, brands and retailers must relentlessly strive to create ever-innovating, participatory consumer experiences.

Traditional packaged goods makers loaded up on snacks before the holidays: Campbell Soup agreed to acquire Snyder’s-Lance Inc.and Hershey Co. struck a deal to buy Amplify Snack Brands.

Digital disruption in the marketplace and an onslaught of smaller, more nimble competitors is leading traditional consumer packaged goods companies to seek greater innovation from their IT organizations, according to a new report.

An optimal innovation pipeline requires the right organizational focus and structure. A good place to start is product management.

Consumers increasingly are demanding details about the clothing they buy and the food they consume, making transparency and traceability a clear business imperative.

The agreement creates an extensive database of product content ready for global dissemination to retailers and other relevant parties through 1WorldSync's cloud platform.  

Although digital disruptors would seem to have the edge in the current marketplace, traditional consumer goods companies still have their own set of advantages to draw upon.

The deal expedites the retailer's efforts to quickly and efficiently bring same-day delivery service to consumers across the U.S.
