Recommendation

The Boston Consulting Group paired with SPINS, a company that analyzes consumer data, to zoom in on an emerging performer in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry: “natural products.” The result will be of interest to investors, manufacturers and CPG companies because consumer demand is up and shows no signs of slowing. There’s an added benefit: If your products really are as natural as consumers hope, you could help save the world while making a profit.

Take-Aways

  • “Natural products“ represent only 7% of sales in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry, but recent numbers show they’re responsible for more than 50% of growth.
  • Natural products have a projected revenue increase of $15 billion by 2024.
  • Natural product categories divide into “emerging, breakouts and leaders.” While all will see growth, some will grow more quickly than others.
