Portfolio Strategy
Does your portfolio effectively meet the needs of today? How well positioned is it for the future?
Developing an effective portfolio strategy should always start with the consumer — identifying and sizing the needs driving choice in your category.
These should in turn be framed into your business reality. Assess each brand's performance and alignment to the identified needs. Use this to inform the ideal shape of your portfolio, minimising overlap, as well as strategic decisions around brand repositioning, M&A, innovation, and investment decisions.
