Retail & Consumer Goods

Show all sectors

Framework conditions in the retail and consumer goods industry are changing with increasing swiftness due to digitalization and new regulatory requirements. From a legal perspective, requirements in terms of sustainability and consumer protection have become considerably more stringent. Binder Grösswang supports clients so that they can not only keep pace but always be a step ahead.

Environmentally conscious purchasers are demanding more information about the production process and input materials (supply chains), consumers are attaching great importance to environmentally-friendly packaging, and circular economy is gaining increasing significance. However, these sustainability-relevant developments are not the only major challenges now confronting the retail and consumer goods industry. The impacts of constantly-growing online commerce, together with increasingly complex data protection requirements, new payment systems and consumer-goods funding models, have to be contended with as well.

We advise, in particular, producers of consumer goods, retail chains, individual retailers, shopping centre operators and online platform operators on matters across all fields of law. With our comprehensive know-how in the sector, we support our clients in consolidating their success and tapping into new markets.
