BITING INTO TECH

FROM INSTANT NOODLES and potato chips to shaving creams and body lotions, packaged consumer goods have brought unprecedented convenience to our daily lives over the past few decades. While the variety and choice of new products on offer have increased manifold, for the average consumer hardly anything has changed in their favourite products. But if you look closely enough, even for the humble pack of wafers or body lotion, everything from how its raw material is procured to how it is produced, packaged and delivered has undergone a sea change.

The reason for that is the various digital-led processes that manufacturers are rapidly adopting across their myriad operations. While leading industry players have deployed resources for years to digitise their sales and distribution channels, this time around, the use of digital tools has encompassed all key elements of their business-from sourcing of raw materials to supply chain and inventory management to manufacturing lines, consumer insights and product development. The impact of this digital push-on the country's 10.4-lakh crore fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) market-is prominently visible in the rapidly evolving ways in which FMCG players conduct critical tasks such as gauging a customer's moods, researching a new product, improving supply chain efficiencies or delivering the products to your doorstep.
