“The CPG industry must rekindle growth when it’s scarce, and reduce costs when a lot has already been done”
McKinsey, 2024
At the start of 2025, two thirds of CPG leaders listed cost-cutting as their top priority [Deloitte, 2025]. However more recent trade deals with the EU, US and India promise relief to the pressure after seemingly endless economic volatility.
But how much of that promise is translating into real-world stability for your business? For many, maintaining lean, resilient and efficient operations in the short-term is still the key focus, and long-term planning feels like an unaffordable luxury. Join us as we explore:
• The actions you can take today to stay agile during disruption.
• The technologies that fix today, while building resilience for tomorrow.
• The most common pitfalls are, and how to avoid them.
Walk away with peer insight, practical ideas, and a clearer view of what’s working for CPG leaders in today’s climate.
