WHO: |
Larry Levin, Executive Vice President, New Solutions, IRI™ |
|
Steve Collins, President of Retail, IRI |
||
WHAT: |
Larry Levin will speak about new shopper trends at two different conferences the week of Sept. 28. At the Prepared Foods’ New Products Conference, Levin’s talk is titled, “Seven Deadly Sins in New Product Development: Why New Products Fail,” focusing on the activities that most often cause CPG manufacturers to stumble. Later that week, Levin will be joined by Steve Collins to present on the topic, “Winning the Customer, One Store at a Time,” at the FMI Energy & Store Development Conference. There, Levin and Collins will examine how the shopping environment has changed, allowing shoppers now to drive the conversation and be in control of the two-way dialogue with retailers. |
|
WHY: |
These conferences provide opportunities to gain new insights into two of the most important topics in the CPG industry: improving the success rate of new product introductions and updating the shopping experience based on the significant changes to how shoppers research, buy and consume food and beverage products. Levin and Collins bring to the table more than 30 years of experience in market research. | |
