The IoT is fundamental to the consumer supply chain offering a range of benefits that can enhance operations and customer experience and support innovation. The technology can be used throughout the consumer, food service, and packaging supply chains to improve efficiency by monitoring inventory levels, demand patterns, and logistics, all while reducing costs. IoT devices can track inventory levels and product conditions in real time, meaning overstocking and stockouts can be avoided. IoT sensors can also monitor product quality and safety during manufacturing, transportation, and storage, particularly for perishable goods. Any deviations from set standards can be detected early, ensuring only safe and high-quality products reach consumers.

The Internet of Things (IoT) in Consumer Goods thematic intelligence report assesses how IoT, combined with other emerging technologies, can be used across the consumer goods value chain. It provides an overview of the current landscape. The report also includes key players and highlights opportunities for the use of IoT in the future. The report provides an industry-specific analysis based on GlobalData databases and surveys.

IoT in Consumer Goods - Value Chain Analysis

The IoT value chain is split into five layers, namely physical, connectivity, data, apps, and goods.

Physical layer: This layer can be further subdivided into connected things, cameras and lenses, sensors and microcontrollers, and microprocessors. Connected things can include connected cars, smart thermostats, fitness bands, smart light bulbs, or a parcel in a delivery truck. The essential electronic components include microcontroller units (MCUs), central processing units (CPUs), AI chips, communications chips, and sensors. Despite the geopolitical issues impacting the production and delivery of advanced chips, leaders in this space include Amazon, Apple, and Huawei.

  • Foodservice sector scorecard
  • Packaging sector scorecard

Scope

• IoT technology is deployed across the whole consumer goods value chain and can enable consumer goods companies to automate workflows, improve efficiency while reducing costs, and improve safety and ESG credentials.

• IoT technology can be used to tackle food waste, a big problem in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) supply chain. An estimated 1.6 billion tons of food are lost or wasted globally every year, with a value of $1.2 trillion. The UN has targeted reducing 50% of food wastage by 2030 as part of its Global Opportunities for Sustainable Development Goals.

• IoT can also enable smart packaging, guaranteeing food product safety and reducing waste. Smart packaging includes sensors that monitor factors like temperature, humidity, and freshness, providing real-time information about the condition of the food. This helps identify potential issues that could lead to spoilage or waste.

“The GlobalData platform is our go-to tool for intelligence services. GlobalData provides an easy way to access comprehensive intelligence data around multiple sectors, which essentially makes it a one-for-all intelligence platform, for tendering and approaching customers.

GlobalData is very customer orientated, with a high degree of personalised services, which benefits everyday use. The highly detailed project intelligence and forecast reports can be utilised across multiple departments and workflow scopes, from operational to strategic level, and often support strategic decisions. GlobalData Analytics and visualisation solutions has contributed positively when preparing management presentations and strategic papers.”

Business Intelligence & Marketing Manager, SAL Heavy Lift

“COVID-19 has caused significant interference to our business and the COVID-19 intelligence from GlobalData has helped us reach better decisions around strategy. These two highlights have helped enormously to understand the projections into the future concerning our business units, we also utilise the project database to source new projects for Liebherr-Werk to use as an additional source to pitch for new business.”

Market Analyst & Management, Liebherr-Werk

Your daily news has saved me a lot of time and keeps me up-to-date with what is happening in the market, I like that you almost always have a link to the source origin. We also use your market data in our Strategic Business Process to support our business decisions. By having everything in one place on the Intelligence Center it has saved me a lot of time versus looking on different sources, the alert function also helps with this.

Head of Key Accounts, Saab AB

Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.

Marketing Intelligence Manager, Portugal Foods

Our experience with GlobalData has been very good, from the platform itself to the people. I find that the analysts and the account team have a high level of customer focus and responsiveness and therefore I can always rely on. The platform is more holistic than other providers. It is convenient and almost like a one stop shop. The pricing suite is highly competitive and value for our organisation.

I like reports that inform new segments such as the analysis on generation Z, millennials, the impact of COVID 19 to our banking customers and their new channel habits. Secondly the specialist insight on affluent sector significantly increases our understanding about this group of customers. The combination of those give us depth and breadth of the evolving market.

I’m in the business of answering and helping people make decisions so with the intelligence center I can do that, effectively and efficiently. I can share quickly key insights that answer and satisfy our country stakeholders by giving them many quality studies and primary research about competitive landscape beyond the outlook of our bank. It helps me be seen as an advisory partner and that makes a big difference. A big benefit of our subscription is that no one holds the whole data and because it allows so many people, so many different parts of our organisation have access, it enables all teams to have the same level of knowledge and decision support.

Head of Customer Insight and Research, Standard Chartered

“I know that I can always rely on Globaldata’s work when I’m searching for the right consumer and market insights. I use Globaldata insights to understand the changing market & consumer landscape and help create better taste & wellbeing solutions for our customers in food, beverage and healthcare industries.

Globaldata has the right data and the reports are of very high quality compared to your competitors. Globaldata not only has overall market sizes & consumer insights on food & beverages but also provides insights at the ingredient & flavour level. That is key for B2B companies like Givaudan. This way we understand our customers’ business and also gain insight to our unique industry”

Head of Consumer Sensory Insights, Givaudan

GlobalData provides a great range of information and reports on various sectors that is highly relevant, timely, easy to access and utilise.  The reports and data dashboards help engagement with clients; they provide valuable industry and market insights that can enrich client conversations and can help in the shaping of value propositions. Moreover, using GlobalData products has helped increase my knowledge of the finance sector, the players within it, and the general threats and opportunities.

I find the consumer surveys that are carried out to be extremely beneficial and not something I have seen anywhere else. They provided an insightful view of why and which consumers take (or don’t) particular financial products. This can help shape conversations with clients to ensure they make the right strategic decisions for their business.

One of the challenges I have found is that data in the payments space is often piecemeal. With GD all of the data I need is in one place, but it also comes with additional market reports that provide useful extra context and information. Having the ability to set-up alerts on relevant movements in the industry, be it competitors or customers, and have them emailed directly to me, ensures I get early sight of industry activity and don’t have to search for news.
