THE BIG PICTURE

The Canadian retail marketplace is extraordinarily complex. At its core are millions of diverse individuals and family units, each with different experiences, attitudes, beliefs, and aspirations. Their desires and motivations for purchasing consumer products are inextricably linked to life’s moments, anticipated usage occasions, and need-states.

The choices for satisfying those needs are evolving rapidly. Retail is a diverse, competitive, omni-channel landscape permeated by social media, digital search, and on-line shopping. Product categories are dynamically transforming in response to changing consumer priorities in health and wellness, environmentalism, authenticity, and economic value.
