McCormick's 'Spicy' Future - What's the Strategy?
3E
0x3ef5…7b77Hey everyone, been with McCormick for a few years now, and while things are generally stable, I can't shake this feeling that we're coasting. Saw an old interview with Matt McCormick (way off site, I know, but the vibe stuck with me) talking about innovation and staying ahead of trends. Makes me wonder if we're really doing that. The consumer goods space is moving so fast – plant-based, personalized nutrition, direct-to-consumer models. Are we aggressively investing in these areas, or just tweaking existing product lines?
Leadership seems to be talking a good game, but I'm not seeing the big, bold moves that really signal a future-proof strategy. It feels like we're great at what we do, but 'what we do' might be slowly becoming less relevant. Anyone else in a similar boat? Curious to hear what others think about the company's direction and if you see real growth opportunities or more of a maintenance mode.
Trying to gauge if this is just my perspective or if others feel the same way about our long-term outlook. Let's keep it constructive!
