Consumer goods & services

Digital transformation reshaping consumer goods and services

The consumer landscape is evolving rapidly. E-commerce is forecast to grow at an annual rate of over 6% through 2029, reaching nearly US$5 trillion by 2030. Millennials and Gen Z will hold increasingly significant spending power, prioritizing experiences and demanding services that foster emotional connection and loyalty. Yet many consumer companies remain in the early stages of digitalization, with established brands still uncertain about managing evolving consumer interfaces. Success now requires enhanced online experiences, AI integration, and customer-centric approaches. Companies must rethink go-to-market strategies and blend digital offerings with traditional products or risk losing share to more agile competitors.

OMMAX partners with consumer goods and services companies to accelerate transformation across technology, digital, data, and AI. From demand forecasting and positioning strategies to streamlined operations and end-to-end transformation, we help clients adapt to industry trends and deliver sustainable growth across the value chain.

Industry Challenges

Navigating critical barriers in consumer goods and services transformation

01

Rapidly evolving customer expectations and journey complexity

Customer expectations shift rapidly in the digital age, with numerous online options prompting customer-centricity across touchpoints. Companies must leverage digital tools, AI, and data analytics to deliver hyper-personalized experiences and streamline operations.

02

Data silos and consumer insight gaps 

Lack of data centralization makes IT solutions inaccessible across organizations. Companies struggle to identify opportunities due to limited consumer relationships and fragmented data access. Breaking down silos is essential for strategic growth. 

03

Strategic digital transformation and technology adoption

Implementing digital solutions while maintaining operational continuity presents challenges. Companies must balance innovation with stability, approach transformation strategically across analytics and cloud, and ensure seamless integration.

04

Marketing complexity and channel strategy misalignment 

The shift from push to pull marketing increases complexity, while companies view digital as a tech issue. Strategic channel implementation must go beyond IT-led initiatives to create cohesive, customer-focused approaches across touchpoints.

05

Declining brand loyalty amid economic pressures

Traditional loyalty diminishes as customers have more choices, while economic volatility demands efficiency. Companies must build genuine trust through transparent communication, innovative programs, and cost-effective high-satisfaction operations.

06

Scaling challenges and sustainability expectations

Successful expansion requires scalable digital ecosystems while meeting environmental expectations. Companies need robust infrastructure for growth, sustainable practices integration, and responsible innovation to manage expansion effectively.

Opportunities

10 success drivers for consumer goods companies

01

Building strong brand equity

Strong brand equity lowers acquisition costs, strengthens loyalty, and improves market positioning. It comes from consistent experiences, strategic marketing, and the smart use of customer insights and data analytics.

02

Omnichannel strategy

A robust omnichannel strategy is crucial for growth in the next 5-10 years, as consumers seek to combine the sensory store experience with the convenience of online shopping.

03

Transforming stores into experience centers

Integrating online and offline data is key to understanding customer behavior across channels, helping companies identify high-value customers and maximize CLV with more engaging experiences and personalized offers.

04

Global expansion at scale

Transform global expansion into competitive advantage with proven frameworks that accelerate market entry. Our strategic playbooks combine market intelligence, omnichannel integration, and localization to ensure consistent brand experiences while adapting to regional preferences and delivering measurable ROI.

05

Analytics and holistic reporting suites

Treating data as an asset is crucial. Real-time dashboards for monitoring KPIs help companies make informed decisions, steer operations with data, and boost business efficiency.

06

Marketing efficiency and customer acquisition costs

Understanding customer acquisition costs and marketing efficiency over time is key. Strong brand equity and managed marketing efficiency across diverse channels are essential to handle rising costs and ensure long-term sustainability.

07

Strong customer economics (CLV/CAC ratio)

Focusing on customer lifetime value (CLV) over customer acquisition costs (CAC) is crucial. A strong CRM system is needed to boost retention, cross- and up-sell opportunities, improving CLV to CAC ratios and increasing profitability.

08

Future-proof tech platform

Businesses must ensure their technology supports growth. Conducting "reverse" due diligence helps identify and resolve technical issues, ensuring platform scalability and efficiency.

09

AI use cases and impact

AI is transforming consumer goods and services by cutting costs, boosting efficiency, and enabling smarter decisions. OMMAX supports companies in identifying high-impact use cases and turning them into measurable results.

010

Management and (digital) capabilities

Having the right management team is crucial for success in today’s evolving business landscape. Traditional businesses transitioning to digital must hire experienced digital leaders to drive growth and ensure the necessary expertise.
