In 2019, many mainstream FMCG companies seem to have encountered a common but unavoidable issue: the boundary of growth. This is manifested in: sluggish performance growth, unpopular new products, out-of-control channel management, and ineffective massive marketing expenditures... Many people are trying to provide answers. At the micro level, new traffic sources such as social e-commerce, B2B, and content e-commerce have siphoned off huge amounts of traffic from original channels; At the macro level, the economic slowdown caused by the Sino-US trade war, an aging population structure, the disappearance of the demographic dividend, and the consumption stratification of emerging mainstream consumer groups such as the post-90s and Generation Z. In 2019, the entire society and market, whether macro or micro, are full of countless variables. Many companies are actively trying new models, embracing new ecosystems, and engaging with new traffic, but the results seem to be less than satisfactory. For FMCG manufacturers, the market problem is not simply that consumers reject products. The current market is full of seemingly contradictory phenomena:
User information is severely overloaded, but many brands find it increasingly difficult to reach users through communication;
Mass products are oversupplied, while customers' individual needs are far from being met;
Consumption upgrades are advancing rapidly in some categories, while others have to face customers' penny-pinching;
In some categories, customers are willing to pay a higher premium for big brands, while in others, customers begin to ignore brand value and are no longer interested in brands;
More seriously, the complexity of omnichannel shopping has already exceeded the limits that existing corporate organizational systems can handle. Even the channel distribution and management models that many companies once prided themselves on have encountered a series of problems: Online and offline are fragmented, company departmental silos are severe, and coordinated operations across all fronts are impossible;
Existing channel models cannot support the distribution of innovative products;
Existing distributor profits are close to breakeven, and channels are on the verge of collapse;
The entire distribution chain has data gaps, channel blind spots, and cannot achieve precise distribution; inventory turnover is low, market feedback is lagging, and the bullwhip effect is severe. New Distribution believes that behind these problems lie three major contradictions that all FMCG manufacturers must face: First contradiction: The contradiction between scale-oriented sales methods and the growing personalized needs of consumers that cannot be satisfied; Second contradiction: The contradiction between consumers' diverse shopping channels and brand owners' overly simplistic distribution models; Third contradiction: The gradual rise in operational costs such as labor and materials across society, channel member profits approaching negative values, and the contradiction between production and sales exacerbating conflicts among manufacturers. The essence of these problems is that existing strategic frameworks can no longer adapt to market demands in the new era. To return to growth, companies must look back at today's strategies from the perspective of the next decade and formulate a strategic blueprint that can support sustained growth over the next ten years, focusing on products, channels, marketing, and organization. We need to think:
- What kind of strategy and organization can support our company's sustained high-speed growth over the next decade?
- What kind of products are suitable for the future?
- What channel models can support diverse consumption scenarios?
- How can new marketing be concretized into methodologies to ensure sales implementation?
- With the rise of social traffic, how can we seize the trend dividend?
- How can the operations and matching of communities, fans, KOLs, content, and scenarios be implemented?
- Is self-built B2B the best form of channel digitalization?
- Can same-city logistics and online-offline integrated inventory achieve three-network coordination?
- Should existing channel models be upgraded, or should a new digital channel be developed?
- How to solve the problem of poor sales of niche products in innovative channels? ...... In response to the above issues, New Distribution will hold the "2019 China FMCG Conference" in Shanghai from August 21 to 23. The conference will be themed "Trillion-Yuan Growth," focusing on innovative products, innovative channels, and innovative marketing, to explore new models, methods, and trends that support rapid growth for enterprises in the next decade. To enable the 4000+ attendees to experience and discover business opportunities firsthand and find corresponding solutions, the 2019 China FMCG Conference will be held in the form of a conference + exhibition. The conference will discuss new trends, new marketing, and new channels, while the exhibition will showcase innovative products, technologies, and future applications. Our original intention in holding this conference is to enable enterprises to connect innovative products with innovative channels, utilize innovative technologies, and achieve new marketing implementation, from methodologies to practical cases, from application tools to supply-demand matching. We hope that through this conference, manufacturers can find new ideas, models, products, and channels for trillion-yuan growth in the next decade! **Conference Time: August 21-23, 2019 Conference Venue: Shanghai Songjiang Fuyue Hotel Conference Topics Invited Guests (tentative) Han Xiang, Senior Director of Coca-Cola China Commercial Leadership Liu Xinhua, General Manager of Uni-President Enterprises Xu Lei, CEO of JD Retail Sub-Group Zhong Shanshan, Founder of Nongfu Spring Chen Xiaodong, Senior Vice President of Nestlé Greater China Ni Zhujie, Director of Market Channels, Coca-Cola Greater China Wei Zhe, Founder and Chairman of Harvest Capital Tao Shiquan, Founder of Jiangxiaobai Liquor Zhang Liaoyuan, Founder of Three Squirrels Huang Wei, General Manager of Uni-President Life Food Business Group Li Lei, Chairman of Haojiayi Su Xiaoxin, Executive President of Zhongshang Huimin Liu Chunxiong, Father of Chinese-style Marketing Fang Gang, Renowned Marketing Expert Tang Huimin, E-commerce Director of RIO Cocktail Ye Maozhong, Renowned Marketing Planning Expert Ding Ding, Founder of Fan Factory FANCTORY Pang Geliang, Chief Product Officer of Shunfeng Group Miao Qingxian, Chief Consultant of Shanghai Yihe Marketing Agency Wang Jun, Renowned New Retail Expert Tang Guangliang, Founder of Xingaoqiao and Kaola Select Lin Feng, Chairman of Beijing Jundu Excellence Consulting Wu Jinghe, Deputy General Manager of Caihua Trading He Shixiang, Partner of Da Chen Venture Capital Li Jiaoshou, Investor and Former Vice President of Baidu Chen Ruifen, General Manager of Uni-President Tea Business Group Tang Huimin, E-commerce Director of RIO Cocktail Wang Qi, Founder of Weijie City Distribution Sun Taoyong, Founder of Weimob Wang Chaocheng, Founder of Yijiupi Mao Wenchao, CEO of Xiaohongshu Tang Xiangyang, Chairman of Lidu Liquor Dada, Co-founder of Pinduoduo Lu Zhihan, Co-founder of Shixianghui Bao Junwei, General Manager of Suning Xiaodian Chen Qiwei, Chairman of Coca-Cola (China) Investment Co., Ltd.
