2021 started with new hope. Markets showed their enthusiasm for the new COVID-19 vaccines and the new leadership in the US. It seemed as if world trade would recover after the long, depressive 2020.
Were we too optimistic? The cynic in us would have probably told that anything would be better than 2020. So what was the mood in CPG in January 2021?
We looked at the number of people who read our market and tech insights stories and their preference for specific topics. The most dominant theme is growth. Our readers wanted to know how to engage a tech partner, about the 2021 growth trends, and growth through digitization. Sebamed vs HUL was the other hottest topic and people seemed to love our opinions.
January was also the month when the Economic Times quoted our Kirana report a couple of times in their stories. We enjoyed many a dazed, trippy moment when our report made its way to the front page of the Economic Times. What’s not to love about that?!
I hope you enjoy this list of curated stories.
