How do massclusivity-minded consumers influence the retailers’ business?

How to make sure that your brand has renewed meaning for consumers in a market of commodities ?
As the value of a brand lies in its products, the new trend is to develop affordable premium consumption combining the mass & the exclusivity.

That’s what you’ll learn throughout our 3 next massclusive BMMA lunches !

Food retail is an ultra competitive market with consumers evolving quickly and becoming very selective and demanding. How to differentiate themselves, how to succeed to be more relevant than others, how to approach the right consumers? Should we switch to a 100% personalized business – is this sustainable in the long term… Let’s open the discussion! The solution is far from being obvious!

The presentation will be held in French.
