The consumer packaged goods industry is experiencing unprecedented transformation. Over the past few years, we've witnessed a remarkable phenomenon: established CPG companies executing multiple strategic pivots as they navigate through increasingly complex market dynamics. The challenges are manifold – from persistent labor shortages and supply chain disruptions to escalating material costs and volatile carrier relationships.
