Objective
The objective of this project is for CPL to assist the client in the development of its plans to create an Ingredients Business Unit based on its existing products and side streams in order to capture more value. The client would like to identify which ingredients and ingredient clusters would present the most attractive opportunities, given its current or potential technical capabilities, and the best strategic approach to adopt in creating the new business unit. . As the first stage in this process, CPL reported on a wide range of ingredients types and the nature of the businesses.
Method
Following a workshop with our client, CPL conducted internal brainstorming sessions and preliminary research to identify areas that warranted further analysis. Subsequent study focused on describing key characteristics of markets, such as size and growth rate, technologies currently in use, and an appraisal of the potential for our client in each area.
The report used data from public sources and data bases, as well as contacts from across the sectors of interest to make recommendations.
