Population growth (%) Population growth (million persons)
Nigeria’s consumer base is the largest and fastest growing in Africa, exceeding200 million by 2020.
Nigeria Consumer Market Landscape
►Nigeria has a growing middle income consumer and has one of the fastest growingconsumer-driven GDP’s in Africa
Elmien Sambandan Source(s): Santander; EY analysis
TheTraditionals
The Rising
The Thriving
►Consumers with low and irregular income►Very price sensitive, this segment depends on cheap
products mostly from informal markets►This is the largest group of consumers
►Middle class consumers with stable and rising income►Even though this segment bases their choices on
quality and practicality of products, the price remainsan important factor
►This segment relevancy is increasing
►Consumers with a higher income and high level ofeducation
►Mostly composed by cosmopolitan professionals; thissegment focuses on high quality, fashionable productspurchased in supermarkets or abroad.
►This segments represents a minority of the population
The consumers can be described in 3 distinct profiles: The Traditionals, theRising and the Thriving.
Nigeria Consumer Market Landscape
Elmien Sambandan
►Nigerian families focus their main expenditures in essential items as Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages disregarding discretionary items such as leisure.
►Utilities expenditures are lower than in South Africa due to limited accessibility ofwater, electricity, gas and other fuels to organised entities.
Nigeria Consumer Market LandscapeIt is an attractive emerging market for consumer products companies, withfood being the major spend of households in Nigeria.

Growth Enabler – Route to Market
Elmien Sambandan
Maximising the growth opportunity in Nigeria, the products should be alignedto the targeted consumer base and enabled through the Route to Market.
ProductsConsumers
• Locally Relevant (unique)• Single use pack formats driving
complexity• Rising input costs
• Irregular or low income• 50% of population <15 years• Demand concentrated in Kano and
Lagos regions• Price sensitive; need low,
competitive price points
• > 900,000 outlets for sales; traditional trade >90%• Lack of control and visibility over route to market• Long lead times at the Lagos port, affecting shelf life and working capital• Logistics and distribution is a key differentiator given the infrastructure
Route to Market
Growth Enabler – Route to Market
Elmien Sambandan
1. Choosing which markets in which to compete
2. Shaping propositions for diverse consumers
3. Controlling the route to market
4. Innovating for local context
5. Being locally relevant…social license to operate
There are 5 Critical Success Factors for maximising the opportunity in Africa,one of them a competitive edge and impacting the Supply Chain significantly.
Elmien Sambandan
Controlling the route to market is a costly exercise, requiring investment.Considering a company’s growth phase, determines the focus of investments.
Emerging Markets: Efficiency vs. Investment
Market Entry
High Growth
Critical Mass
Sustainable Growth
– Low utilisation, invested capacity– Growth lags the investment
– Build product brands– Launch locally relevant products
– Low margin, high growth– Sales volumes lag supply chain
investment, but reaching towardscritical mass
– Build Supply Chain capabilities– Invest in Sales capability– Drive product volumes to reach the
critical mass
– Sales volume is suitable for thetype and size of operating model
– Supply chain capability extractsvalue out of critical mass
– Drive cost efficiencies– Optimise customer/product portfolios– Optimise supply chain– Invest in Sales capability
– Need to find new growthopportunities
– Drive market share and/orpenetration
– Innovate– Reconsider the operating model
A Case Study – Multinational FMCG
Elmien Sambandan
► Manufacturing plant► 2 warehouses, 14 depots► 500+ Distributors► ± 40 SKUs► Overall 60% utilisation of depots► Inventory: 7d fast moving; 78d tail end
An established consumer products manufacturer has reached critical salesvolumes to consider driving operational efficiencies whilst growing to the nextlevel.
Challenges:►No control or visibility over distributor order size/frequency.►No visibility of outlets penetration.►Product availability at distributors/outlets not controlled.►Distributors have limited and fluctuating cash flow.
Elmien Sambandan
A Case Study – Growth StrategyThe company invested in strategic growth initiatives that would increase theircontrol of the route to market from their own warehouses to include distributors.
► Build partnerships with keydistributors
► Allocate geographical locations todistributors
► Launch 3 new products► Deploy sales force at key distributors► Provide micro-financing to
distributors to relieve cash flowconstraints
► Launch mobile app for sales force totrack sales and inventory atdistributor, providing visibility
Growth Initiatives
► Increased visibility at distributors:– Inventory holding– Daily sales patterns– Promotions and pricing
► Increased control of inventory atdistributors:
– Cash flow enables purchases– Normalised order patterns– Reduced variance in supply chain
► Distributors take joint responsibilityfor geographical areas
► Innovation of new products createsconsumer excitement to drive growth
Impact
Elmien Sambandan
A Case Study – Cost OptimisationThe cost optimisation initiatives pursued by the company was not going to havea significant cost reduction impact, but rather risk additional loss of sales.
► Reduce transportation costs► Reduce costs of regional depots
through consolidation► Reduce overall inventory holding
Cost Optimisation Initiatives
► All warehousing and transport costswas only 5% of sales
► 2-7 months in a year, they are out ofstock on the top 4 fast moving SKUs.Inventory holding is too low
Cost Analysis
► Rationalised non-profitable products► Optimise inventory policies► Use key distributors for decentralised
“warehousing” space
These cost optimisation initiatives pursued will not have a significant impact on costs, but riskreducing product availability, negating all the investment created in the growth initiatives.
Revised Optimisation Initiatives
► Increased product availability frommanufacturing, in warehouses as wellas at distributors
► Create manufacturing capacity for fastmoving SKUs
Impact
► The battle for share of discretionary spend is won or lost at thepoint of buying, where the consumer makes buying decision.
► Product availability at consumer point of buying is critical tocompete; i.e. penetration of outlets is necessary.
► The supply chain capability and route to market is a criticalenabler to ensure product availability.
► The degree of control over the route to market is a competitiveadvantage.
► The investment required to control the entire route to market may beastronomical and thus requires a pragmatic approach to achieve thebalance between growth and costs.
Elmien Sambandan
ConclusionThe case study is an example of the pragmatic route to market approachrequired to orchestrate the balance between growth strategies and driving costefficiencies to ensure product availability.

► Prime distributor(s)order(s) and import(s)the product
► Route to market maypass through otherdistribution tiers, e.g.sub distributors andwholesalers prior toreaching consumers,especially in traditionaltrade markets
► The distributor(s) areaccountable for supplychain, sales, customercontact and marketingactivities
As export except:► A subsidiary is created in
country to manage thesupply chain (includingimportation,warehousing andtransportation to thedistributor), manage thedistributor and supportlocal marketinginitiatives, e.g. materialslocalization
► The subsidiary receivesdemand plans from thedistributor andcalculates netrequirements
As import except► The subsidiary manages
all marketing andcustomer contactactivities, including keyaccounts, ordermanagement andcollections
► The distributor managesthe sales force only anddoes not take title to theproduct
► The subsidiary managesall in country activitiesincluding distribution toconsumers.
► Greater control of valuechain and accuracy indemand requirementsplanning.
