Supply Chains to Admire 2023

Household Consumer Non-Durables

In the last decade, the acquisition strategies of consumer non-

durables companies failed to yield scale. The sizeable traditional

consumer products companies of Colgate, Kimberly-Clark, P&G,

and Unilever struggled to drive growth as smaller and more agile

companies like Church & Dwight and Clorox made progress.

Post-pandemic, as the chemical sector and transportation costs

skyrocketed, no company was resilient. As a result, there is no

Supply Chain to Admire Award Winner.

Large global multinational cross-functional alignment issues grew

over the decade, driving a schism between operations and

commercial teams. Operating margins were down 4%, while

inventory turns decreased by 1%.
