White paper

The price on the shelf doesn't belong to you. But the data does.

In the 2026 negotiations, 55% of Ilec members agreed to a pay cut, even though they needed an average pay increase of +3%. With a net profit of €3.50 for every €100 in sales, a food manufacturer can no longer afford a poorly justified price increase or a poorly calibrated promotion. The shelf price is set by the retailer, but everything that goes into producing the product upstream is driven by data.

This white paper shows how a consumer goods brand leverages the factors it can control—pricing and negotiated net prices, promotional plans, product lines, and package sizes—in the face of private-label competition, while also monitoring the actual prices charged by each retailer. Verified figures from 2024 to 2026 (NielsenIQ, Ilec, Observatoire des négociations commerciales, ANIA, Banque de France, Simon-Kucher).
