Today’s challenging environment is putting significant pressure on margin and profitability. It has never been more important or more valuable to apply a discipline and data-based approach to optimizing your company’s assortment and pricing. With this in mind, we are pleased to bring you our second EDM Expert Talk together with McKinsey & Co.

An optimized assortment and pricing can deliver a “hat-trick” of 3–5 percent revenue growth, 2-3 points in margin improvement, and with 10–20 percent fewer SKU’s.
Victor Duran, Associate Partner at McKinsey and a leader in the strategic, commercial and operational topics of the Sporting Goods industry, shares the key elements to consider and the steps you can take to optimize your assortment and pricing architecture in our latest webinar.
We also share specific examples and success stories.
This EDM Expert Talk was originally broadcast on Oct. 26 and is available to watch on demand now.
Speakers include:
- Victor Duran, Associate Partner at McKinsey
- Claudia Klingelhöfer, Moderator, EDM Publications
