Top 10 Fast Moving Consumer Goods

FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) is a term that is used to refer to those goods which are sold through retail stores. These goods have a short period of shelf life and as such are used up within days, weeks, or months. At the most it lasts for a year. However there are also durable goods which people replace after using the same for many years. For example we can cite kitchen or other household appliances.

Some FMCG products perish within a short time while others have a shelf life of more than a year. Nevertheless the turnover rates for both these categories are very high depending on customer demand and brand loyalty.

FMCG products are made by companies that also make other products as well. Therefore to determine the best selling brands of fast moving consumer goods one has to look into the performance of FMCG companies which manufacture these products. For this market analysts apply different standard evaluations until they conclude on their findings.

Before deciding on the popularity of a fast moving consumer good the perspective of the consumer and the view of the marketer are taken into consideration. From the consumer’s point of view those products which are purchased frequently can be considered as top selling products. Another factor here is brand loyalty. Many consumer stick to a particular brand for years because they are satisfied with its quality. Price is also a factor.

From the marketer’s point of view the volume of sales, margin, distribution network and stock turnover are determining factors for a product to become best selling. Therefore when both these viewpoints are analyzed and matched with actual facts and figures only then a clear picture emerges.

Creation of new products is a constant process but only those products emerge as winners which meet the expectations of people and make constant endeavours to enhance quality and appeal.
