Abstract
German manufacturers of consumer goods, which supply for an annual retail sales volume of more than DM 700 billion, are in a difficult position today: they are suffering from severe profit pressures due to
-
stagnating consumer demand,
-
a massive concentration among their customers in the retail sector,
-
changing service and price demands in the context of the “ECR” revolution,
-
the challenge of the “europeanization” of markets, and
-
uncertain effects of “electronic shopping” on demand and the viability of established distribution channels.
