InterSearch Worldwide's FMCG Practice Group: A Case Study
For multinational companies in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) sector, recruiting experienced leadership in developing markets is often a challenge. This is one of the reasons that InterSearch Worldwide, a global network of search firms consistently ranked amongst the largest retained executive search practices globally and currently represented in more than 40 countries, recently announced the launch of its official FMCG & Retail Practice Group, which offers InterSearch's clients the advantage of conducting an executive search anywhere in the world, while guaranteeing the same high level of service they enjoy at home.
"Thanks to the valued input and support of our InterSearch partners, all information relating key accounts in the world of Consumer & Retail was brought together. This resulted in a practice group of more than 200 Consumer & Retail companies worldwide, signifying a tremendous potential for international assignments, as exemplified by several case studies. We are convinced this initiative will serve to support the further extension of our Intersearch network", commented Vanessa Delacourt, InterSearch's FMCG & Retail Practice Group Leader.
