Consumer Goods and Retail

Companies operating in today’s global consumer goods and retail sector must adapt to an increasingly competitive environment and at the same time navigate a complex array of regulatory requirements. Understanding and complying with these requirements is an integral component of strategic growth, from research and development through to manufacturing, marketing and distribution.
