Helping companies in the retail & consumer industry strengthen financial performance, achieve greater operating effectiveness and increase the total value of their business
Challenges for consumer products manufacturers, retailers, and others along the supply chain (collectively retail & consumer companies) are many in today's business environment as a confluence of market forces have created an extremely challenging climate. Retail & consumer companies are constrained in their ability to grow and maintain profit margins as a result of a deflationary operating environment, market saturation, slowing population growth, and more discerning but less loyal consumers.
Due to stakeholder demands and the resultant Sarbanes-Oxley legislation, the retail & consumer industry is also experiencing heightened regulatory pressures. These pressures will require greater accountability and accuracy in the reporting of financial results, increased levels of corporate governance and board involvement, stronger internal control documentation and a greater need for stronger risk management practices across the enterprise.
