Experts at the Global Summit, held in late June, predict robust growth in all countries and sectors within the consumer goods industry, and a boom in demand for sustainable products in particular.

Journalist Isabelle Kumar moderated, and Konstantinos Apostolatos, Managing Director and Senior Partner of The Boston Consulting Group, François Faelli, Global Leader of Consumer Products Practice at Bain & Company, and Solitaire Townsend, Co-Founder of Futerra, were the speakers.

Positive Growth Trends

Apostolatos pointed out that while practically every country will have a positive growth bar, what is important is the quality and shape of growth. He said that value for money and the trend for health have both increased in importance, as has the importance of sustainability.

Key Issues Post Pandemic

Sustainability, social, and environmental issues are topics of consumer conversation that will stick around after the pandemic, Townsend said, as well as those surrounding supply chain security and International Labor Standards. Hp 113196 Nutra 6
