Abstract

Nowadays in the retail sector there is much speculation about the future of private labels – Will they continue the high growth rate in the next several years? In this report it is presented a clear and delicate picture of private labels: definition, situations (especially in Europe and in Brazil), strategies of both retailers and manufacturers, and trends concerning this hot topic. The paper starts with an explanation of the motivation to work with private labels, from the point of view of both retailers and manufacturers. The difficulties faced by them when dealing with private labels are also approached in this report. Then, the current situation in Europe and in Brazil is pointed out and a set of interviews makes clearer how a real private label manufacturer works. Finally, illustrations on the trend and an optimistic prediction of the future of private labels will close this paper.
