In this episode, we speak with SJ Petteruti, Director, Product Evangelist at Salsify, on how he analyses consumers and does research on how businesses handle product data. We discussed how Salsify, a commerce experience management platform, helps businesses in managing data linked to the products they generate in order to determine the value of such products from the consumers’ perspective. He also discussed the role of consumer-produced goods (CPG) in business from an educational standpoint. We discussed how vital it is to be consistent with product information from digital endpoints if one wants to be successful in the digital shelf space in the food industry. He discussed how the e-commerce market in grocery stores is growing and how it is creating consumer trust. He gave a quick overview of consumer trends, including how consumers see sustainability and why packaging is important to them. We discussed how sustainability is bridging the gap between the food business and consumers.
