CHPA Executive Conference
Rarely have we seen an economy more turbulent than the past 18 months.
The larger world around us continues to shift rapidly and present a
range of challenges. Yet on the positive side and closer to home, the
continuing expansion of technologies and virtual communities presents
new opportunities to engage and touch consumers more directly than ever
before. Such times demand that we not only implement and deliver new
solutions, but that we rethink how we innovate. This year’s CHPA
Executive Conference program looks at rethinking innovation.

After a decade of sizable consumer spending shifts from the grocery channel to supercenters and other CPG channels, channel migration is slowing. As supercenter markets become increasingly saturated, and grocery retailers’ transformation plans gain traction, grocers are successfully maintaining both share of spending and trips. CPG manufacturers will need to reassess distribution and merchandising strategies, while retailers will be required to evaluate competitive strategies to drive growth as the new “industry order” evolves.
This session highlights emerging channel migration trends across departments, categories and consumer segments and identifies opportunities for CPG manufacturers and retailers to protect and grow their business as consumer shopping patterns shift in a new direction.
