FMCG is a highly competitive space, with companies constantly seeking ways to innovate and differentiate their products in order to gain market share. This has led to the development of new technologies and techniques in areas such as packaging and production, as well as a focus on sustainability and environmental concerns. In terms of manufacturing, FMCG companies typically operate large-scale production facilities that are designed to maximize efficiency and minimize cost. This often involves the use of automation and other advanced technologies to streamline the production process. Quality control is also of critical importance, as consumers have high expectations for the safety and reliability of the products they purchase.

Many trends and challenges have been and still are shaping the FMCG manufacturing landscape including:

• Sustainability and reducing environmental impact, with efforts to reduce waste, use eco-friendly materials, and minimize energy consumption in the manufacturing process
• Personalization and customized product offerings and marketing campaigns
• Health and wellness products focusing on natural, organic, gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options
• Digitalization with the use of automation in the manufacturing process, as well as the use of digital platforms to connect with consumers and gather data for product development and marketing
• Increasing competition whereby companies are constantly seeking ways to differentiate themselves from the competition through the development of new product lines, expansion into new markets, and the use of innovative marketing strategies
