Trade Marketing & Retail Intelligence

Trade Marketing & Retail Intelligence

Your brand is in the market. But what is really happening at the point of sale?

Getting a product listed is only the beginning. Understanding how your brand is presented, priced, promoted and perceived is essential for improving its commercial performance.

Drawing on my experience in marketing, sales and international business development, I offer practical market intelligence and trade marketing support to help brands identify opportunities and strengthen their presence.

Areas of expertise

  • Retail Audits & Store Checks: Product availability, shelf positioning, pricing and promotional compliance.

  • Mystery Shopping: Independent evaluations of customer service, product recommendations and the purchasing experience.

  • Competitor Analysis: Monitoring competing brands, pricing, promotional activities and retail positioning.

  • Brand Visibility & Merchandising: Assessing product presentation, shelf space and in-store promotional materials.

  • Field Marketing & Sales Activation: Supporting product launches, tastings, promotional campaigns and in-store commercial activities.

  • International Retail Intelligence: Coordinating tailored retail and market assessment projects internationally, working with local collaborators where required.

Better market insight. Better commercial decisions.

MY PERSONAL RULES

Personal Commitment. Professional Integrity. Real Results.

I believe that successful business relationships are built on trust, transparency and a genuine commitment to delivering value.

My approach is personal, practical and focused on understanding each client's business, challenges and objectives.

1. Quality Over Quantity

I work with a carefully selected number of brands and projects, ensuring that every client receives the attention, commitment and professional support they deserve.

2. Independence & Transparency

For long-term brand representation, I establish clear agreements to protect each client's interests and avoid commercial conflicts.

For consultancy, retail audits, mystery shopping and trade marketing assignments, I offer independent, confidential and project-based services.

3. Hands-on Involvement

I believe in being close to the market. Whether developing new business opportunities, visiting customers or evaluating retail performance, my approach combines strategic thinking with practical execution.

4. International Reach. Local Understanding.

Every market is different. I combine my international experience with local market knowledge and, where required, collaborate with local professionals to deliver projects adapted to each country's commercial environment.

5. Long-term Relationships

My objective goes beyond completing a project. I aim to build lasting professional relationships based on trust, open communication and shared commercial objectives.

Connecting People. Connecting Markets. Connecting Brands.
