PRACTICAL BACKGROUNDThe Commercial and Retail Management-programme focuses on the managerial challenges the consumer goods industry is facing – including digitalization, big data, social media, omni-channel management, customer journey, globalization and the need for an outside-in perspective.
The traditional division of the B2B and B2C markets is developing towards a B2B2C mindset.
The supplier must increasingly consider the entire value chain right through to the consumer, whilethe retailer must structure its supplier relations with an eye for how to create value for the supplieras well as the consumer.
