how to win in 2025

Winning at the point of sale is a game with constantly moving goalposts. Our trend paper provides you eight thought starters to give your brand an edge in 2025.

Be constantly innovative or risk becoming a me-too brand.

Be clear about who you are and what you sell. And be concise: as shoppers only spend between 3 to 5 seconds to look at your pack on average, don’t waste your opportunity to shine. But keep in mind: on the shelf, everyone copies everyone else all the time. So you‘ll need to find new ways to stand out constantly.
