What are FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods)?
Fast Moving Consumer Goods are the goods that we consume or use on regular basis such as food, drinks, washing powder, toothpaste and many more. Due to short shelf life, these goods have to be moved quickly in the market. In the simplest words, these are the goods having expiry dates.
The UK FMCG industry
There are more than 7,000 food and drink companies giving employment to more than 400,000 individuals in the UK. Approximately, more than 10,000 new products are introduced to the market every year. Approximately 14% of the UK manufacturing sector is covered by food and drinks. However, exporting and importing FMCG products in the UK has been challenging in last two years. And, the year 2017 is going to be of some certain uncertainties due to Brexit. An over 3% decline is expected in the industry. Though it will be for a brief span of time, but due to higher import prices, revenue streams will be curtailed. This market turmoil will lead to lower profitability.
