Peer intelligence and senior advisory for CPG leaders

Haug Growth Group runs two of the consumer goods industry's most active peer exchange programs — bringing senior RGM and Data Science leaders together in a confidential setting to share what actually works. We also provide fractional executive advisory and board-level guidance for companies at critical commercial inflection points.

Background

Experience spanning major CPG growth, brand turnarounds, startup launches, licensing strategy, and executive advisory — applied to companies at meaningful commercial inflection points.

Peer Exchange Programs

Two groups. Two disciplines. One trusted network.

Since 2017, Haug Growth Group has facilitated confidential peer exchange programs for senior leaders at major consumer goods companies. Membership is selective, conversations are candid, and the insight you gain is not available anywhere else.
