You need a consultant because
Many business owners are facing a slow organic growth or simply struggling with a stagnant market. They need a breakthrough while determining several profitable growth scenarios. ASEAN is a natural move and is becoming a preferred destination for investment because of its robust 5.1% annual growth in GDP.
Nonetheless, the sheer magnitude of the opportunity and dynamism at play in ASEAN markets means there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Getting it right is a major source of competitive advantage and will save you time and money from unexpected troubleshooting.
Let’s start looking at the ASEAN market from these perspectives
Tapping into the booming consumption power in Southeast Asia to grow your business exponentially. ASEAN has 650million population, Indonesia alone accounts for 260million.
Managing a multitude of fragmented trade channels (modern and traditional) and partners to execute effectively in this hybrid environment—noting that traditional trade (millions of small trade outlets) is still incredibly important.
Understanding the unique needs of consumers in areas where data is limited and consumer profiles are evolving.
Targeting the growing middle-class, start-up generations and the old money generations to discover hidden pockets of opportunity. McKinsey estimated the number of Indonesian middle-class to grow to 90million by 2030.
Leveraging next-generation analytics and technology to create step change in the way that go-to-market lands in the field, this is particularly important to consumer goods sector.
