ACCELERATING
THE GROWTH
OF ECOMMERCE
IN FMCG
ACCELERATING THE GROWTH OF
ECOMMERCE IN FMCG
By 2017 nearly half (48%) of the world’s
population will have internet access, up
from 32% in 20121
. By the end of 2014
the number of mobile-connected
devices will exceed the number of
people on the planet2
. However, in the
FMCG sector, ecommerce is still in its
early days representing a mere 3.7%
share of FMCG sales in the markets we
track globally. With FMCG growth rates
of 54% in France, 45% in China and the
global grocery market increasing at an
average rate of 31%, we expect ecom-
merce to account for over 5% of FMCG
sales by 2016. This figure has the
potential to rise to 28% if 60% of
households across the globe use the
online channel just once a month.
To realise this, there are barriers which
retailers and brands need to overcome.
They include:
•The cost of delivery which is currently
limiting the number of shoppers. In
France, one part of the big success of
the click & collect system called
“drive” is based on the fact that
delivery is free.
• Misconceptions that ecommerce
reduces consumer loyalty and
therefore spend. This is not the case.
Those retailers with an online
presence secure additional revenue
and have higher shopper loyalty than
those without. In the UK, for example,
Tesco online shoppers spend 46% of
their total grocery budget with the
retailer, compared with only 29% for
an offline Tesco shopper.
• Fear that an online presence
cannibalises sales in physical stores.
This is not true. In China, over 50% of
all online purchases are additional
revenue for retailers and brands, and
this trend is experienced globally.
The average ecommerce penetration
rate currently stands at 20% globally.
There are significant opportunities
to drive more spend by responding
to evolving consumer behaviour and
identifying shopper motivations,
such as:
•The importance of making the retail
experience fun, to engage custo-
mers. Emart increased its customer
membership in South Korea by 56%
through an innovative and engaging
lunchtime campaign, demonstrating
the growth opportunity for retailers
and brands that can effectively
capture the interest of consumers.
•The need to get on “the shopping
list”. Once brands make it there they
experience stronger loyalty and
significantly higher sales as shop-
pers use the same list repeatedly to
save time.
•Understanding the types of goods and
brands which consumers are looking
for when they go online. This is
contingent on a number of factors
including: country, demographic and
socio-economic profile of consumers,
local logistics infrastructure and
smartphone penetration rates. There
is no “one-size-fits-all” approach.
Our findings are based on tracking the
purchases of 100,000 shoppers in 10
key countries spanning three conti-
nents. We monitor every purchase via
every channel on a continuous basis.
Based on this unique insight into
consumer behaviour knowledge, we
demonstrate that those retailers and
brands which have failed to take note
of the evolving retail landscape have
lost market share to existing competi-
tors and new entrants. We also
identify specific ways to drive revenue
by showcasing best-in-class perfor-
mance from the UK, France, Korea
and China – all of which are winning in
share but have very different local
retail environments.

LEADERS AND LAGGARDS
State of play
Different countries are at different
evolutionary stages of adopting ecom-
merce. South Korea leads the way with
online accounting for 10.2% of FMCG
sales. Ecommerce is a natural extension
of its digitally-saturated world with
internet and Wi-Fi widely available and a
smartphone penetration of 73% – the
second highest worldwide. In Europe, the
UK and France are the trailblazers for
online FMCG with respective shares of
4.9% and 3.9%. The US is also among the
most advanced countries in ecommerce
with online accounting for 4.0% of FMCG
sales.
Spain, Portugal, Germany, Russia and
Brazil are all beginning to establish and
define an online presence and can use
the lessons learned from countries which
are further advanced in their ecommerce
use to accelerate their growth.
Global growth
Although online only makes up a small
share of FMCG sales at the moment, all
countries are witnessing considerable
growth, providing significant opportuni-
ties for retailers and brands.
France is achieving the most significant
growth. Its performance has been
boosted by its strong click & collect
initiative, Drive, which has helped
retailers to engage with a much larger
number of shoppers and convert them to
using ecommerce.
Looking across to Asia, China has
boasted double digit growth for several
consecutive years as a result of urbani-
sation and the growing middle classes.
Consumers are attracted by the variety of
heavily discounted imported products
that are available.
Future growth will be achieved by
convincing more of the population to go
online and encouraging them to do so
regularly. Growing penetration is the
most important lever to achieving this –
once consumers have broken the

barriers to using ecommerce for the first
time, they are much more likely to do it
again. Our findings also show that online
shoppers are extremely loyal to retailers
and brands.
There are already great examples of
success. In South Korea over half of the
population shop online, while in the UK
online consumers are demonstrating
serious commitment, with those who
shop online doing so at least once a
month. Although only 28% of households
shop online for FMCG goods in mainland
China at the moment, this figure is close
to hitting 50% in its larger cities (Beijing,
Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chengdu).
With the country’s logistics and distribu-
Forecast for the future
We’ll see ecommerce experience significant global
growth by 2016. France has the potential to take over
the UK in share terms by 2016, while China will be the
fastest growing country in the world in online FMCG by
2016 with a forecasted growth rate of 75%. This means
that it is essential to have a presence to win a share of
sales in the future.
If all countries achieve South Korea’s penetration level
and the frequency of the UK’s online shoppers, ecom-
merce will account for over a quarter (28%) of FMCG
value in the major markets. With significant revenue to
play for, identifying and responding to the opportunity
ecommerce provides as quickly as possible is vital.

Overcoming the fear that online
cannibalises existing spend
While there’s no doubt that the online FMCG
sector is growing, some brands and retailers
are still sceptical and view ecommerce as
more of a threat than an opportunity.
One of the main concerns for FMCG
players is that ecommerce will take spend
away from physical channels. Yet this is
also one of the biggest misconceptions.
Having an online offer helps retailers
secure additional revenue rather than
cannibalising existing spend in bricks and
mortar stores. What’s more, in the UK,
shoppers are much more likely to visit the
same retailer when using the online
channel, allowing retailers and brands to
capture a higher proportion of spend from
their customers.
Some 20% of a UK online shopper’s
budget goes towards online spend, with
the rest going on in-store purchases. As
online currently accounts for only a 4,9%
share of FMCG sales, this presents a
significant opportunity for retailers to
increase their revenue.
Online consumers are also attractive
because they spend more than offline
shoppers due to the nature of what
motivates them to go online – typically
planned purchases for ‘restock and
replenishment’. In all countries, shoppers
spend twice as much online as they do in
store. British consumers buy the most
each time, spending almost five times the
amount they do in physical stores.

Branded opportunity
Online is an ideal platform for brands.
Typically current ecommerce users are
middle and upper class and spend
higher than average, and favour branded
products over own-label on the whole.
These consumers are looking for
higher-end, luxury products and brands
that meet these aspirational needs. The
digital platform provides a window to
new possibilities and prestige that
simply doesn’t exist in physical stores.
This is particularly prevalent across Asia
where the assortment of luxury products
available online is a major cause of
growth. Rapid urbanisation in countries
like China has led to an emerging
middle class which is looking to
experience luxury, placing high value on
niche products and premium brands
which can’t be accessed locally. As
such, there is a huge growth opportunity
for premium international brands.
Luxury French brands such as
Lancôme, La Roche-Posay and
Biotherm are experiencing significant
growth online in China.
Like retailers, brands experience
stronger loyalty from online shoppers
who tend to use the same shopping list
for their next trip. Brands should
develop strategies to be “on the
shopping list” to significantly increase
their sales. In France, 55% of shoppers
re-use the same shopping list for the
next trip.

RECIPES FOR
SUCCESS
The ecommerce channel clearly
presents significant growth opportu-
nities for retailers and brands, but
how can these be exploited?
While total ecommerce spend shows
explosive growth across the globe,
there are very different catalysts in
individual markets. The profile of
early online adopters is consistent
across all countries – young, wealthy,
urban/suburban families with
children – however, what motivates
shoppers to go online differs depen-
ding on the local environment and
socio-economic factors. Understan-
ding these motivations is vital to drive
sales. In China the most popular
product bought online is baby diapers
as consumers look to ‘restock and
replenish’ bulky goods while saving
time.
Broadly, there are four types of
shopper motivations which ultima-
tely make the difference between a
good and a bad shopping trip for
FMCG consumers: cost, time,
availability and fun. The ecommerce
channel is well placed to take
advantage of all of these.
Online is quicker and more conve-
nient, it gives shoppers more control
over their budgets and means there is
a much wider range of products
available. While fun might seem like
an exception, with the other motiva-
tions seeming to focus on meeting
more practical needs, there is more
potential to meet this need using the
online channel than in physical
stores.
By profiling shoppers further to
develop a better understanding of
these motivations – as well as the
pressures, aspirations and functional
needs that lie behind them – retailers
and brands have the potential to
improve their online offer, capture
new customers and ultimately grow
their revenue.
Convenience clicks
Modern lifestyles mean that consu-
mers are busier than ever before.
Working hours have lengthened and
shoppers have less time to dedicate
to the weekly grocery shop. Online
provides the perfect platform for
retailers to capitalise on consumers’
desire for convenience and flexibility.
Click & collect is an attractive
proposition for the busy modern
consumer and the ideal multi-
channel strategy. It is starting to pick
up significantly across Europe,
particularly in more developed
markets such as the UK and France.
It is an effective strategy for growth
because it plays to the needs of the
modern consumer.
To achieve growth in click and collect
sales, retailers will need to encourage
existing shoppers to adopt it more
regularly and build it into their shopping
routine. They should also focus on
recruiting additional shoppers from a
broader demographic. In the UK, some
grocery retailers are bringing the click and
collect channel to London tube stations to
help attract a broader range of consu-
mers. Asda, Waitrose and Tesco have
installed click and collect facilities at
stations to enable consumers to save time
by picking up grocery orders on their way
home. The next step is expanding the
service further – for example, having
groceries delivered outside the school
gates, office or local leisure complex. It’s
about matching delivery patterns to
people’s daily behaviour.
France’s Drive concept has signifi-
cantly increased online sales for the
country’s leading grocery stores,
helping to encourage more consu-
mers to use the ecommerce channel.
Drive is a simple click & collect
service which allows shoppers to
order spontaneously or in advance.
The customer drives to a pick-up point
and products are delivered to their
vehicle in less than five minutes.
There are eight players in the Drive
market –Leclerc is the market leader
with Drive contributing to 50% of its
total growth.
SHOPPER & RETAIL

Drive has a 25% penetration and took
4.2% share of the French grocery
market in February 2014. One of the
biggest benefits for French retailers is
that it encourages a very high loyalty
rate. Some 68% of French consumers
claim they use Drive because it saves
time, while 34% said it helps them to
control their budget. It’s so effective
because it serves the needs of the
French consumer who is looking for
things to be ‘made easy’.
The next stage for retailers in France is
building more capacity for the Drive
model and capitalising on its popularity

by developing it further. Auchan, for
example, has given consumers access to
three different types of store in one handy
location – Auchan Drive; general
merchandise store GrosBill; and
Arcimbo, a new fresh foods store which
means click & collect shoppers can still
pick up fresh fruit, vegetables and
cheese.
08
Wise buys
Despite having less time on their
hands, shoppers are savvier and more
demanding than ever before. FMCG
retailers and brands should look to
provide online-only promotions, daily
deals and flash sales as a way of
enticing customers and driving spend
to the ecommerce channel. The
effectiveness of this approach was
seen in China with retailers experien-
cing significant online sales growth by
hijacking Singles’ Day – a holiday
which encourages the unmarried to
socialise and celebrate with single
friends.
E-commerce giant Alibaba started
offering discounts on Singles’ Day (11
November) in 2009, with other compa-
nies soon following suit – this phenome-
non has seen enormous success in a
very short period of time.
Singles’ Day is China’s biggest online
shopping day, bringing in over $5.7
billion of sales on the one day alone in
2013 – this is more than two-and-a-half
times the total made by US retailers on
Cyber Monday.
Alibaba is the biggest winner, taking
over 70% of sales in 2013. For many

smaller retailers, Singles’ Day brings
the majority of their annual sales. One
online bag retailer which is part of
Alibaba’s Tmall platform usually sells
200 bags a day, and sold 40,000 units on
Singles’ Day 2012.
The day highlights the growing purcha-
sing power of Chinese consumers, as
well as the increasing importance of
ecommerce for the country.
Singles’ Day helped to drive a wider
range of shoppers to the online
platform, who were attracted by the
huge discounts available. Latching on to

an already established holiday was a
winning strategy and this could be
replicated by retailers in other countries.
The vast quantity of sales in such a short
period of time places a huge stress on
China’s internet and logistics infrastruc-
ture, with delivery of goods sometimes
taking over a month. Although this
doesn’t seem to stop Chinese consu-
mers from taking advantage of the
discounts, this should be a key conside-
ration for other countries looking to
replicate the model.
Increasing “impulse”
purchases
Encouraging unplanned purchasing
online is currently a challenge.
However, if retailers can convince
shoppers to impulse purchase in the
same way as they do in store, they have
the opportunity to increase sales
significantly.
One of the barriers to driving online
impulse sales is time and cost. In
South Korea, these barriers have been
overcome through free delivery and
advanced logistics and distribution
networks. Other countries should learn
from this by providing better delivery
services to encourage consumers to
make more impulse purchases online
– for example, same day delivery for
‘quick fix’ treat items. This means
shoppers can get the late night snacks
or the bottle of wine they want without
having to leave the house. Many people
living in Europe are willing to pay £20
for a takeaway, so grocery retailers
could look to expand their ‘dine in’
ranges and move in on this space with
a cheaper or healthier alternative. In
South Korea takeaway food suppliers
have launched wireless software in the
form of a button for people’s fridges,
which smartphone users can connect
to and order their favourite takeaway.
There could be huge sales potential for
brands and retailers if they were to
replicate this model. Convincing
consumers to buy more of the small
things has the potential to significantly
increase market share.
Growing impulse purchasing doesn’t
just mean encouraging consumers to
pick up extra items at the till; it’s also
about convincing consumers to make
more occasional shopping trips. In the
UK and France, most shopping trips
are planned with consumers driven by
a particular desire. Shoppers use
online channels to stock up on
heavyweight, staple items such as
canned goods and diapers, accounting
for 93% of orders in France and the UK
made for ‘restocking and replenishing’
purposes.
New digital touch points provide ways
to reach more people on the go and
South Korea and Taiwan are two
examples of countries which have
capitalised on the growth of smartpho-
nes and tablets to reach consumers.
This has resulted in the growing
popularity of retail apps to drive sales
in-store and online. Retailers could
use apps to capture impulse shoppers,
contacting consumers with special
‘one time only’ deals – for example,
‘make an online order in the next hour
and receive 20% off your total basket’.
Online adverts could also be used to
encourage impulse purchasing,
offering consumers money off all

purchases within a certain time frame.
In the UK, those watching live televi-
sion often do so whilst simultaneously
using their table or laptop. Retailers
could use TV adverts as an opportunity
to sell directly to the consumer by
developing QR codes that can be
scanned on screen.

Making it fun
One of South Korea’s largest retailers,
Emart, capitalised on the country’s high
smartphone penetration and appetite for
technology by introducing the ‘Sunny
Sale’ as a way of driving online sales. In
2012, the store developed a 3D QR code
that was only visible with the shadows
produced between 12 and 1pm, after
noticing a downturn in sales during this
lunchtime period. Scanning the code led
customers to the ‘Sunny Sale’ homepa-
ge which gave them special offers
including a $12 coupon. Following the
success of this promotion, in 2013 Emart
produced an app that allowed LED lights
in its stores to lead customers to
discounted items through their
smartphones.
Lunchtime sales increased by 25% as a
result of the ‘Sunny Sale’ with 12,000
coupons used and a 56% increase in
Emart membership. The idea had such

strong traction with South Korean
consumers that Emart expanded this
promotion from 13 to 36 locations in just
one month.
The success of the campaign was due in
part to the local environment which is
known for its progressive use of
technology. It encouraged impulse
purchasing at a time when sales are
typically slow. The ‘Sunny Sale’ was an
effective way of using technology to drive
sales, but a campaign like this relies on
regions with high smartphone penetra-
tion. Opportunities still exist for retailers
to adapt the concept and introduce
similar initiatives based on this premise
with flash sales and promotions. One of
the most important factors behind the
success of ‘Sunny Sale’ was that it was
new and fun. As a result it successfully
encouraged consumers to go online,
ultimately increasing sales.

IMPORTANCE OF MAKING

Demographic shifts
As people across the globe have
become better connected and different
ecommerce platforms have emerged,
new consumer groups are becoming
increasingly engaged and present a
huge growth opportunity for FMCG
retailers and brands.
In China, for example, the
demographic profile of online shoppers
is skewed towards higher income and
younger families. However, with
internet penetration growing across
the country, middle-income
consumers and older families are
becoming better connected and are
key groups that deserve more
attention. The absolute growth of
online spend by consumers in smaller
“second-tier” cities was 78% in 2013,
more than double the growth rate of
the largest. Targeting these
digitally-savvy consumers in lower tier
cities will be crucial for growth.
While China has seen spend spread
from the rich to the middle classes, the
change in Korea and Taiwan has been
generational. In these countries, it was
initially the younger generation which
dominated the online FMCG market.
However, older consumers are now
being recruited at the fastest pace,
with the over 50s especially bringing
new opportunities for growth. It is
important to develop more targeted,
11
shopper-focused marketing strategies
which include initiatives to engage a
wide range of demographic groups,
such as these.
MIDDLE-INCOME
CONSUMERS AND OLDER
FAMILIES ARE BECOMING
BETTER CONNECTED AND

DESERVE MORE ATTENTION.
The future belongs to retailers and
brands that see the bigger picture and
leverage the opportunities of online and
offline by developing a defined multi-
channel strategy. Ecommerce is the
ideal platform for broadening target
markets and fostering international
growth. It gives shoppers access to a
different assortment of product lines,
customised offers and promotions and
a quicker and more convenient
shopping experience. Being a slow
adopter has the potential to significantly
damage sales and erode market share.
Changes in technology and consumer
behaviour mean that the retail landsca-
pe is constantly evolving. Smartphone
penetration, for example, is increasing
rapidly, meaning that m-commerce will
be an important driver for the future,
helping to reach more shoppers on the
go. Developing user-friendly apps will
play an important role in securing
growth. Social networks are also likely
to play a huge role in retail over the next
few years with consumers becoming
increasingly engaged with a number of
platforms and using them to communi-
cate with retailers and brands.
Asia will be the next major growth
market with Africa and Latin America
following close behind. While ecom-
merce doesn’t exist in the majority of
Africa at the moment, the average
smartphone penetration is already two
per household. This is a golden
m-commerce opportunity for retailers
and brands looking to expand into this
market.
Online-only players should not be
undermined. Retailers like Amazon
have the potential to disrupt the market
and have a significant impact on sales.
In the US it has launched Amazon Fresh
and could develop an FMCG offer which
will threaten traditional players.
Current leaders need to create higher
barriers to entering the market or risk
losing their future online leadership.
For retailers and manufacturers there
is a major challenge to understand
SHOPPER & RETAIL
shopper motivations and how to use this
knowledge, alongside new platforms, to
enable growth. As new technologies
emerge this will become even more
important, and it will be those FMCG
companies with a clear understanding
of the wants and needs of the online
shopper who will be able to develop the
strongest multi-channel strategies and
ultimately grow market share.

the growth of eCommerce in FMCG

  • 1. SHOPPER & RETAIL ACCELERATING THE GROWTH OF ECOMMERCE IN FMCG
  • 2.
  • 3. ACCELERATING THE GROWTH OF ECOMMERCE IN FMCG By 2017 nearly half (48%) of the world’s population will have internet access, up from 32% in 20121 . By the end of 2014 the number of mobile-connected devices will exceed the number of people on the planet2 . However, in the FMCG sector, ecommerce is still in its early days representing a mere 3.7% share of FMCG sales in the markets we track globally. With FMCG growth rates of 54% in France, 45% in China and the global grocery market increasing at an average rate of 31%, we expect ecom- merce to account for over 5% of FMCG sales by 2016. This figure has the potential to rise to 28% if 60% of households across the globe use the online channel just once a month. To realise this, there are barriers which retailers and brands need to overcome. They include: •The cost of delivery which is currently limiting the number of shoppers. In France, one part of the big success of the click & collect system called “drive” is based on the fact that delivery is free. • Misconceptions that ecommerce reduces consumer loyalty and therefore spend. This is not the case. Those retailers with an online presence secure additional revenue and have higher shopper loyalty than those without. In the UK, for example, Tesco online shoppers spend 46% of their total grocery budget with the retailer, compared with only 29% for an offline Tesco shopper. • Fear that an online presence cannibalises sales in physical stores. This is not true. In China, over 50% of all online purchases are additional revenue for retailers and brands, and this trend is experienced globally. The average ecommerce penetration rate currently stands at 20% globally. There are significant opportunities to drive more spend by responding to evolving consumer behaviour and identifying shopper motivations, such as: •The importance of making the retail experience fun, to engage custo- mers. Emart increased its customer membership in South Korea by 56% through an innovative and engaging lunchtime campaign, demonstrating the growth opportunity for retailers and brands that can effectively capture the interest of consumers. •The need to get on “the shopping list”. Once brands make it there they experience stronger loyalty and significantly higher sales as shop- pers use the same list repeatedly to save time. •Understanding the types of goods and brands which consumers are looking for when they go online. This is contingent on a number of factors including: country, demographic and socio-economic profile of consumers, local logistics infrastructure and smartphone penetration rates. There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach. Our findings are based on tracking the purchases of 100,000 shoppers in 10 key countries spanning three conti- nents. We monitor every purchase via every channel on a continuous basis. Based on this unique insight into consumer behaviour knowledge, we demonstrate that those retailers and brands which have failed to take note of the evolving retail landscape have lost market share to existing competi- tors and new entrants. We also identify specific ways to drive revenue by showcasing best-in-class perfor- mance from the UK, France, Korea and China – all of which are winning in share but have very different local retail environments.

  • 4. Portugal 0,9% +4% 1,4% Brazil 0,1% 02 LEADERS AND LAGGARDS State of play Different countries are at different evolutionary stages of adopting ecom- merce. South Korea leads the way with online accounting for 10.2% of FMCG sales. Ecommerce is a natural extension of its digitally-saturated world with internet and Wi-Fi widely available and a smartphone penetration of 73% – the second highest worldwide. In Europe, the UK and France are the trailblazers for online FMCG with respective shares of 4.9% and 3.9%. The US is also among the most advanced countries in ecommerce with online accounting for 4.0% of FMCG sales. Spain, Portugal, Germany, Russia and Brazil are all beginning to establish and define an online presence and can use the lessons learned from countries which are further advanced in their ecommerce use to accelerate their growth. Global growth Although online only makes up a small share of FMCG sales at the moment, all countries are witnessing considerable growth, providing significant opportuni- ties for retailers and brands. France is achieving the most significant growth. Its performance has been boosted by its strong click & collect initiative, Drive, which has helped retailers to engage with a much larger number of shoppers and convert them to using ecommerce. Looking across to Asia, China has boasted double digit growth for several consecutive years as a result of urbani- sation and the growing middle classes. Consumers are attracted by the variety of heavily discounted imported products that are available. Future growth will be achieved by convincing more of the population to go online and encouraging them to do so regularly. Growing penetration is the most important lever to achieving this – once consumers have broken the ECOMMERCE FMCG VALUE GROWTH IN 2013 ECOMMERCE FMCG 2013 VALUE SHARE FORECAST 2016 VALUE SHARE barriers to using ecommerce for the first time, they are much more likely to do it again. Our findings also show that online shoppers are extremely loyal to retailers and brands. There are already great examples of success. In South Korea over half of the population shop online, while in the UK online consumers are demonstrating serious commitment, with those who shop online doing so at least once a month. Although only 28% of households shop online for FMCG goods in mainland China at the moment, this figure is close to hitting 50% in its larger cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chengdu). With the country’s logistics and distribu- Forecast for the future We’ll see ecommerce experience significant global growth by 2016. France has the potential to take over the UK in share terms by 2016, while China will be the fastest growing country in the world in online FMCG by 2016 with a forecasted growth rate of 75%. This means that it is essential to have a presence to win a share of sales in the future. If all countries achieve South Korea’s penetration level and the frequency of the UK’s online shoppers, ecom- merce will account for over a quarter (28%) of FMCG value in the major markets. With significant revenue to play for, identifying and responding to the opportunity ecommerce provides as quickly as possible is vital. tion networks rapidly expanding to more rural cities in western China, there is an opportunity to reach a much wider demographic of consumers. FUTURE GROWTH WILL BE ACHIEVED BY CONVINCING MORE OF THE POPULATION TO GO ONLINE AND ENCOURAGING THEM TO DO SO REGULARLY.
  • 6. 16,1 11,9 10,5 11,8 Average TESCO Online Average ASDA Online Average SAINSBURY’S Online Average WAITROSE Online ONLINE OPPORTUNITIES Overcoming the fear that online cannibalises existing spend While there’s no doubt that the online FMCG sector is growing, some brands and retailers are still sceptical and view ecommerce as more of a threat than an opportunity. One of the main concerns for FMCG players is that ecommerce will take spend away from physical channels. Yet this is also one of the biggest misconceptions. Having an online offer helps retailers secure additional revenue rather than cannibalising existing spend in bricks and mortar stores. What’s more, in the UK, shoppers are much more likely to visit the same retailer when using the online channel, allowing retailers and brands to capture a higher proportion of spend from their customers. Some 20% of a UK online shopper’s budget goes towards online spend, with the rest going on in-store purchases. As online currently accounts for only a 4,9% share of FMCG sales, this presents a significant opportunity for retailers to increase their revenue. Online consumers are also attractive because they spend more than offline shoppers due to the nature of what motivates them to go online – typically planned purchases for ‘restock and replenishment’. In all countries, shoppers spend twice as much online as they do in store. British consumers buy the most each time, spending almost five times the amount they do in physical stores. 04 ECOMMERCE FMCG 2013 LOYALTY IN UK % Loyalty to Online % Loyalty to Store LOYALTY CASE STUDY: In the UK, ecommerce provides retailers with additional revenue.

  • 7. Branded opportunity Online is an ideal platform for brands. Typically current ecommerce users are middle and upper class and spend higher than average, and favour branded products over own-label on the whole. These consumers are looking for higher-end, luxury products and brands that meet these aspirational needs. The digital platform provides a window to new possibilities and prestige that simply doesn’t exist in physical stores. This is particularly prevalent across Asia where the assortment of luxury products available online is a major cause of growth. Rapid urbanisation in countries like China has led to an emerging middle class which is looking to experience luxury, placing high value on niche products and premium brands which can’t be accessed locally. As such, there is a huge growth opportunity for premium international brands. Luxury French brands such as Lancôme, La Roche-Posay and Biotherm are experiencing significant growth online in China. Like retailers, brands experience stronger loyalty from online shoppers who tend to use the same shopping list for their next trip. Brands should develop strategies to be “on the shopping list” to significantly increase their sales. In France, 55% of shoppers re-use the same shopping list for the next trip.

  • 8. 06 RECIPES FOR SUCCESS The ecommerce channel clearly presents significant growth opportu- nities for retailers and brands, but how can these be exploited? While total ecommerce spend shows explosive growth across the globe, there are very different catalysts in individual markets. The profile of early online adopters is consistent across all countries – young, wealthy, urban/suburban families with children – however, what motivates shoppers to go online differs depen- ding on the local environment and socio-economic factors. Understan- ding these motivations is vital to drive sales. In China the most popular product bought online is baby diapers as consumers look to ‘restock and replenish’ bulky goods while saving time. Broadly, there are four types of shopper motivations which ultima- tely make the difference between a good and a bad shopping trip for FMCG consumers: cost, time, availability and fun. The ecommerce channel is well placed to take advantage of all of these. Online is quicker and more conve- nient, it gives shoppers more control over their budgets and means there is a much wider range of products available. While fun might seem like an exception, with the other motiva- tions seeming to focus on meeting more practical needs, there is more potential to meet this need using the online channel than in physical stores. By profiling shoppers further to develop a better understanding of these motivations – as well as the pressures, aspirations and functional needs that lie behind them – retailers and brands have the potential to improve their online offer, capture new customers and ultimately grow their revenue. Convenience clicks Modern lifestyles mean that consu- mers are busier than ever before. Working hours have lengthened and shoppers have less time to dedicate to the weekly grocery shop. Online provides the perfect platform for retailers to capitalise on consumers’ desire for convenience and flexibility. Click & collect is an attractive proposition for the busy modern consumer and the ideal multi- channel strategy. It is starting to pick up significantly across Europe, particularly in more developed markets such as the UK and France. It is an effective strategy for growth because it plays to the needs of the modern consumer. To achieve growth in click and collect sales, retailers will need to encourage existing shoppers to adopt it more regularly and build it into their shopping routine. They should also focus on recruiting additional shoppers from a broader demographic. In the UK, some grocery retailers are bringing the click and collect channel to London tube stations to help attract a broader range of consu- mers. Asda, Waitrose and Tesco have installed click and collect facilities at stations to enable consumers to save time by picking up grocery orders on their way home. The next step is expanding the service further – for example, having groceries delivered outside the school gates, office or local leisure complex. It’s about matching delivery patterns to people’s daily behaviour.
  • 9. France’s Drive concept has signifi- cantly increased online sales for the country’s leading grocery stores, helping to encourage more consu- mers to use the ecommerce channel. Drive is a simple click & collect service which allows shoppers to order spontaneously or in advance. The customer drives to a pick-up point and products are delivered to their vehicle in less than five minutes. There are eight players in the Drive market –Leclerc is the market leader with Drive contributing to 50% of its total growth. SHOPPER & RETAIL 07 Drive has a 25% penetration and took 4.2% share of the French grocery market in February 2014. One of the biggest benefits for French retailers is that it encourages a very high loyalty rate. Some 68% of French consumers claim they use Drive because it saves time, while 34% said it helps them to control their budget. It’s so effective because it serves the needs of the French consumer who is looking for things to be ‘made easy’. The next stage for retailers in France is building more capacity for the Drive model and capitalising on its popularity 68% OF FRENCH CONSUMERS CLAIM THEY USE DRIVE BECAUSE IT SAVES TIME. BEST IN CLASS FOR CLICK & COLLECT: DRIVE, FRANCE by developing it further. Auchan, for example, has given consumers access to three different types of store in one handy location – Auchan Drive; general merchandise store GrosBill; and Arcimbo, a new fresh foods store which means click & collect shoppers can still pick up fresh fruit, vegetables and cheese.
  • 10. 08 Wise buys Despite having less time on their hands, shoppers are savvier and more demanding than ever before. FMCG retailers and brands should look to provide online-only promotions, daily deals and flash sales as a way of enticing customers and driving spend to the ecommerce channel. The effectiveness of this approach was seen in China with retailers experien- cing significant online sales growth by hijacking Singles’ Day – a holiday which encourages the unmarried to socialise and celebrate with single friends. E-commerce giant Alibaba started offering discounts on Singles’ Day (11 November) in 2009, with other compa- nies soon following suit – this phenome- non has seen enormous success in a very short period of time. Singles’ Day is China’s biggest online shopping day, bringing in over $5.7 billion of sales on the one day alone in 2013 – this is more than two-and-a-half times the total made by US retailers on Cyber Monday. Alibaba is the biggest winner, taking over 70% of sales in 2013. For many BEST IN CLASS FOR PROMOTIONS: ALIBABA, CHINA smaller retailers, Singles’ Day brings the majority of their annual sales. One online bag retailer which is part of Alibaba’s Tmall platform usually sells 200 bags a day, and sold 40,000 units on Singles’ Day 2012. The day highlights the growing purcha- sing power of Chinese consumers, as well as the increasing importance of ecommerce for the country. Singles’ Day helped to drive a wider range of shoppers to the online platform, who were attracted by the huge discounts available. Latching on to FMCG RETAILERS AND BRANDS SHOULD LOOK TO PROVIDE ONLINE-ONLY PROMOTIONS, DAILY DEALS AND FLASH SALES AS A WAY OF ENTICING CUSTOMERS AND DRIVING SPEND TO THE ECOMMERCE CHANNEL. an already established holiday was a winning strategy and this could be replicated by retailers in other countries. The vast quantity of sales in such a short period of time places a huge stress on China’s internet and logistics infrastruc- ture, with delivery of goods sometimes taking over a month. Although this doesn’t seem to stop Chinese consu- mers from taking advantage of the discounts, this should be a key conside- ration for other countries looking to replicate the model.
  • 11. Increasing “impulse” purchases Encouraging unplanned purchasing online is currently a challenge. However, if retailers can convince shoppers to impulse purchase in the same way as they do in store, they have the opportunity to increase sales significantly. One of the barriers to driving online impulse sales is time and cost. In South Korea, these barriers have been overcome through free delivery and advanced logistics and distribution networks. Other countries should learn from this by providing better delivery services to encourage consumers to make more impulse purchases online – for example, same day delivery for ‘quick fix’ treat items. This means shoppers can get the late night snacks or the bottle of wine they want without having to leave the house. Many people living in Europe are willing to pay £20 for a takeaway, so grocery retailers could look to expand their ‘dine in’ ranges and move in on this space with a cheaper or healthier alternative. In South Korea takeaway food suppliers have launched wireless software in the form of a button for people’s fridges, which smartphone users can connect to and order their favourite takeaway. There could be huge sales potential for brands and retailers if they were to replicate this model. Convincing consumers to buy more of the small things has the potential to significantly increase market share. Growing impulse purchasing doesn’t just mean encouraging consumers to pick up extra items at the till; it’s also about convincing consumers to make more occasional shopping trips. In the UK and France, most shopping trips are planned with consumers driven by a particular desire. Shoppers use online channels to stock up on heavyweight, staple items such as canned goods and diapers, accounting for 93% of orders in France and the UK made for ‘restocking and replenishing’ purposes. New digital touch points provide ways to reach more people on the go and South Korea and Taiwan are two examples of countries which have capitalised on the growth of smartpho- nes and tablets to reach consumers. This has resulted in the growing popularity of retail apps to drive sales in-store and online. Retailers could use apps to capture impulse shoppers, contacting consumers with special ‘one time only’ deals – for example, ‘make an online order in the next hour and receive 20% off your total basket’. Online adverts could also be used to encourage impulse purchasing, offering consumers money off all SHOPPER & RETAIL 09 purchases within a certain time frame. In the UK, those watching live televi- sion often do so whilst simultaneously using their table or laptop. Retailers could use TV adverts as an opportunity to sell directly to the consumer by developing QR codes that can be scanned on screen. ACCELERATING THE GROWTH OF ECOMMERCE IN FMCG NEW DIGITAL TOUCH POINTS PROVIDE WAYS TO REACH MORE PEOPLE ON THE GO.
  • 12. 10 Making it fun One of South Korea’s largest retailers, Emart, capitalised on the country’s high smartphone penetration and appetite for technology by introducing the ‘Sunny Sale’ as a way of driving online sales. In 2012, the store developed a 3D QR code that was only visible with the shadows produced between 12 and 1pm, after noticing a downturn in sales during this lunchtime period. Scanning the code led customers to the ‘Sunny Sale’ homepa- ge which gave them special offers including a $12 coupon. Following the success of this promotion, in 2013 Emart produced an app that allowed LED lights in its stores to lead customers to discounted items through their smartphones. Lunchtime sales increased by 25% as a result of the ‘Sunny Sale’ with 12,000 coupons used and a 56% increase in Emart membership. The idea had such BEST IN CLASS FOR FUN: EMART, SOUTH KOREA The experience in South Korea underli- nes the importance of making online shopping more fun and interactive to help drive sales. Retailers could harness this technique by introducing promo- tions in the form of games. If consumers win, they get a voucher towards their next online shop. Initiatives like this create a buzz around a brand and help retailers to stand out from the crowd. strong traction with South Korean consumers that Emart expanded this promotion from 13 to 36 locations in just one month. The success of the campaign was due in part to the local environment which is known for its progressive use of technology. It encouraged impulse purchasing at a time when sales are typically slow. The ‘Sunny Sale’ was an effective way of using technology to drive sales, but a campaign like this relies on regions with high smartphone penetra- tion. Opportunities still exist for retailers to adapt the concept and introduce similar initiatives based on this premise with flash sales and promotions. One of the most important factors behind the success of ‘Sunny Sale’ was that it was new and fun. As a result it successfully encouraged consumers to go online, ultimately increasing sales. THE EXPERIENCE IN SOUTH KOREA UNDERLINES THE IMPORTANCE OF MAKING ONLINE SHOPPING MORE FUN AND INTERACTIVE TO HELP DRIVE SALES.
  • 13. Demographic shifts As people across the globe have become better connected and different ecommerce platforms have emerged, new consumer groups are becoming increasingly engaged and present a huge growth opportunity for FMCG retailers and brands. In China, for example, the demographic profile of online shoppers is skewed towards higher income and younger families. However, with internet penetration growing across the country, middle-income consumers and older families are becoming better connected and are key groups that deserve more attention. The absolute growth of online spend by consumers in smaller “second-tier” cities was 78% in 2013, more than double the growth rate of the largest. Targeting these digitally-savvy consumers in lower tier cities will be crucial for growth. While China has seen spend spread from the rich to the middle classes, the change in Korea and Taiwan has been generational. In these countries, it was initially the younger generation which dominated the online FMCG market. However, older consumers are now being recruited at the fastest pace, with the over 50s especially bringing new opportunities for growth. It is important to develop more targeted, 11 shopper-focused marketing strategies which include initiatives to engage a wide range of demographic groups, such as these. MIDDLE-INCOME CONSUMERS AND OLDER FAMILIES ARE BECOMING BETTER CONNECTED AND ARE KEY GROUPS THAT DESERVE MORE ATTENTION.
  • 14. The future belongs to retailers and brands that see the bigger picture and leverage the opportunities of online and offline by developing a defined multi- channel strategy. Ecommerce is the ideal platform for broadening target markets and fostering international growth. It gives shoppers access to a different assortment of product lines, customised offers and promotions and a quicker and more convenient shopping experience. Being a slow adopter has the potential to significantly damage sales and erode market share. Changes in technology and consumer behaviour mean that the retail landsca- pe is constantly evolving. Smartphone penetration, for example, is increasing rapidly, meaning that m-commerce will be an important driver for the future, helping to reach more shoppers on the go. Developing user-friendly apps will play an important role in securing growth. Social networks are also likely to play a huge role in retail over the next few years with consumers becoming increasingly engaged with a number of platforms and using them to communi- cate with retailers and brands. Asia will be the next major growth market with Africa and Latin America following close behind. While ecom- merce doesn’t exist in the majority of Africa at the moment, the average smartphone penetration is already two per household. This is a golden m-commerce opportunity for retailers and brands looking to expand into this market. Online-only players should not be undermined. Retailers like Amazon have the potential to disrupt the market and have a significant impact on sales. In the US it has launched Amazon Fresh and could develop an FMCG offer which will threaten traditional players. Current leaders need to create higher barriers to entering the market or risk losing their future online leadership. For retailers and manufacturers there is a major challenge to understand SHOPPER & RETAIL shopper motivations and how to use this knowledge, alongside new platforms, to enable growth. As new technologies emerge this will become even more important, and it will be those FMCG companies with a clear understanding of the wants and needs of the online shopper who will be able to develop the strongest multi-channel strategies and ultimately grow market share.
