The CPG market is estimated at $3.45 trillion in 2026 and projected to reach $4.24 trillion by 2030, a 4.2% CAGR, with year-over-year growth of 3–5% depending on region and product segment.

The fact sheet summarizes the key growth drivers — emerging markets in APAC and Latin America, e-commerce and direct-to-consumer channels, and premium health, wellness, and sustainability categories — against the risks of input-cost inflation, supply chain disruption, and slowdowns in mature markets.

It lists the top manufacturing challenges and the critical success metrics to track (forecast accuracy and lead time, inventory turns and fill rate, supply chain cost, ESG compliance and supplier risk, cash-to-cash cycle), and maps three of them to SAP: Business Data Cloud and Business Network for supply chain visibility, Integrated Business Planning for AI-driven demand forecasting, and Responsible Design and Production for sustainability compliance.

The full fact sheet is available above as a PDF. See also the "CPG 2026 Market Overview: Executive Brief" and the complete "Consumer Packaged Goods Manufacturing: 2026 Industry Overview" deck in the Resource Library.
