Assortment strategy & opportunity mapping

Which products should be expanded, which reduced and which added to the range, based on demand, margin and strategic fit.

When the product range has grown instead of been planned.

Many product ranges came about historically, not through strategic planning.

  • The product range has grown historically, not been planned strategically
  • Unclear which products actually drive growth
  • New product ideas are discussed without testing them against existing metrics
  • Resources are spread evenly across strong and weak products
  • There is no map of the next worthwhile opportunities

Frequently asked questions.

Are completely new product categories also examined?

How is "phase-out candidate" defined?

By a combination of margin, revenue trend and strategic relevance, not by revenue alone.

Does the analysis also cover marketplaces?

Yes, the shop and marketplaces are looked at together.

What happens with the results?

You receive a prioritized list including a recommendation, which serves as a basis for sourcing or marketing.

Does this replace a market analysis for a single new product?
