Did you know that 70% of all convenience retail spending happens at independent and small-chain stores? For Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands seeking growth, this statistic reveals an enormous yet underutilized opportunity to promote their products in the convenience market. It can also lead to a potential goldmine of consumer data and insights.
However, the value isn’t simply a one-way street. Improved collaboration between c-store retailers and CPG brands can position retailers to tap into a bigger share of brand spending that leads to higher store profitability.
Get the inside scoop from industry experts in the on-demand webinar “Unlocking C-Store Growth: Independent Retailer Data Insights” as they share unique insights gained from decades in the data analytics and convenience retail market:
