REVENUE MANAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN A PANDEMIC ENVIRONMENT
COVID-19
The Changing Shape of the CPG Demand Curve 30
-
© 2020 Information Resources Inc. (IRI). Confidential and Proprietary. 2
EXECUTIVE SUMMARYFollowing the COVID-19 pandemic surge, CPG has seen rising price/mix across channels, driven by a combination of fewer promotions, shifts to more premium products and increasing shelf price. While these increases are starting to slow, price/mix growth remains well above historical averages. In this pandemic environment, continued high demand and supply constraints have lowered price sensitivity of shoppers, particularly in e-commerce and grocery channels. In this report we focus on how price and promotion sensitivity has changed in the largest channel, grocery, which has gained share during the pandemic. A variety of pricing and promotion strategies are used in this channel, enabling IRI to measure price elasticity accurately. We contrast how shoppers react to price in grocery channel vs. other leading channels such as e-commerce, mass merchandisers and drug.
Key Pricing and Promotional Trends
• Shoppers have become less price sensitive in edible categories and even more in some supply-constrained nonedible categories.
• Shoppers are willing to pay more while shopping in e-commerce and grocery channels for high demand categories such as meat,
frozen meals and paper products.
• Mainstream and value brands, typically more price sensitive, have seen slightly greater declines in sensitivity than premium brands.
Premium products are, as expected, the least price sensitive and are in higher demand even among lower income shoppers.
• Sensitivity to promotional pricing fell more than everyday prices with a reduction in promotions in many categories. Promotion levels
and promotional investment efficiency are returning to normal levels for most categories.
Implications
• Optimize revenue management practices to reflect K-shaped economic recovery:
− Ensure adequate opening price points and value products for low-income shoppers.
− Drive sales of premium and super premium products to shoppers who are willing to redirect more of their discretionary income
to CPG products.
− Refine price-pack-channel architecture to capture emerging growth demand spaces (e.g., nonedible in grocery, e-commerce).
• Fine tune assortment to meet the unique needs of premium and value customers.
• Track promotional execution and effectiveness to direct investments to maximize returns.
• Understand the effect of your pricing and promotion on specific shopper segments in order to drive penetration and incremental
revenue.
• Continuously monitor price and promotional elasticity at granular levels and adapt revenue growth management practices.

• Monitor price elasticity at a granular level with high frequency to capitalize on pricing opportunities in the supply-constrained environment.
• Understand price-pack opportunities across channels and assess potential evolution since onset of COVID-19, especially with e-commerce vs. store.
• Ensure adequate opening price points and value products, while driving sales of premium and super premium products.
• High demand categories have significant declines in elasticities, even going from being elastic to inelastic.− CPG manufacturers may have an opportunity to increase
prices to cover increased costs in high demand categories.• Manage trade-in gap between value and mainstream and
between mainstream and premium brands.• Continuously track promotional effectiveness and direct
investments to efforts that deliver the highest returns.
• Attract and retain e-commerce shoppers who are less price sensitive and more loyal with right targeting, messaging and assortment.
• Fine tune assortment; build both value and premium offerings and manage trade-in gap between value and mainstream and between mainstream and premium brands.
• Understand the effect of your pricing and promotion on specific shopper segments in order to drive penetration and incremental revenue.
• Use promotions strategically to drive growth where there is greater price reaction and return on investment. − Consider empathetic promotional strategies for categories of
growing need (e.g., meals, frozen vegetables, fruits) as fatigued home cooks look for more meal inspiration.
• Continuously monitor price and promotional elasticity at granular levels and adapt revenue growth management practices.

Tailor Revenue Management Strategies for Success in a PandemicIt is critical to understand shifting price and promotion elasticities across channels and tailor revenue management strategies and tactics accordingly to maximize sales and margin. COVID-19 cases are surging, and a new wave of pantry stocking is expected. This is likely to reaccelerate price / mix growth, with increased demand driving everyday prices up and promotional activity down. Further, with cold weather and COVID-19 restrictions driving consumers back into their homes, the shift to premium and super-premium products is likely to accelerate, a win for both brands and retailers prepared for these shifts.
