Consumer demand is expanding along with the middle class
in developing markets, as is the competition and business
climate. These factors make it critical to have precision when
it comes to operating in this market, from developing the right
products and services, message and package to launching in
the right channels, to providing the right support, to optimising
post sales.
The economic slowdown in the developed world is forcing
companies to modify their business models or create new
ones. In addition, the rise of new technology-based and low-
cost rivals is threatening incumbents, reshaping industries,
and redistributing profits. Indeed, the ways by which
companies create and capture value through their business
models is undergoing a radical transformation worldwide.
At SSCG, we believe that understanding market constraints,
creativity and innovation play an important role in establishing
required operation plans for your business and allocation
required resources to foster sustainable growth. The pressure
to crack open markets in developing countries, particularly
those at the middle and bottom of the pyramid, is driving a
surge in business-model innovation.
We help clients to capture new
market opportunities, de-risk
operation and overcome growth
challenges to enhance
productivity
We work closely with our clients in
redesigning their business models
giving better competitive edge,
mitigate risks and improved
business performance. Our
innovative business solutions can
help create space for change and
drive your business growth. We

refine ways to produce and deliver
services that meet market
demand and customer needs.
