Strategic Pricing Reset.
The days of routine annual price increases are gone and pricing adjustments face a higher level of scrutiny in today’s retail environment. As the relationship between manufacturers and retailers evolve, collaboration is key. Establishing effective pricing collaboratively with retailers can drive profitable growth, resulting in a win for manufacturers and a win for retailers.
