Join the premier consumer goods membership organisation
Where leaders collaborate to help drive change
As a member of the Consumer Goods Forum, you join a unique global platform designed to foster peer-to-peer learning and support your business in navigating an increasingly complex world.
Our member benefits focus on four strategic pillars: unrivalled networking at our global events, access to voluntary industry standards, high-level stakeholder engagement, and actionable tools for measurable impact. We provide the collective intelligence you need to help shape the future of the industry through independent business action.
Events & Networking
Our events provide industry leaders with the space to step back, compare perspectives, and explore shared challenges with peers facing similar pressures.
Across global summits, focused roundtables, and invite-only gatherings, members connect with senior decision-makers from across the consumer goods value chain. These exchanges support informed, independent decision-making, practical problem-solving, and a clearer understanding of the pre-competitive issues shaping the industry.
Whether online or in person, our events are designed for purposeful networking—helping leaders test ideas, learn from real-world experience, and identify credible paths to navigate a complex landscape.
Thought leadership & Insights
Members gain exclusive access to forward-looking insights that support confident, well-informed decision-making. This includes expert-led webinars, practical toolkits, and interactive workshops focused on navigating real-world business challenges.
Through our global community, members share voluntary best practices and expertise drawn from diverse markets and operating contexts. These exchanges help leaders navigate complexity, anticipate emerging trends, and assess which strategic approaches are most relevant for implementation within their own organisations.
Stakeholder engagement
We provide our members with the unique platform to engage directly with key stakeholders—including governments, NGOs, and international organisations. By enabling access to these global decision-makers, we ensure our members can provide industry perspectives on the most critical challenges facing the consumer goods sector.
Through these high-level exchanges, your organisation contributes to the effort to understand global issues and the development of voluntary frameworks. This allows the industry to navigate shifting regulatory landscapes and societal expectations through informed, independent business action.
Industry standards & Measurement
We support our members to adopt voluntary measurements and reporting frameworks across critical areas such as carbon emissions, deforestation, and food safety. By promoting consistency and transparency, we help our members in demonstrating credible, independent progress toward their sustainability and operational goals. At the same time, we recognise and promote voluntary industry standards across the entire supply chain, driving trust, and efficiency at a global level.
Pilots and tools
We facilitate the development of practical tools and pre-competitive pilots designed to support sustainable growth and increase industry efficiencies. By providing these scalable frameworks, we equip our members with the insights needed to secure consumer trust through informed, independent implementation within their own operations.
Development programmes
We equip the next generation of industry leaders—from rising CSOs to future CEOs—with the strategic insights and professional networks necessary to lead in a complex global market.
The Future Leaders Programme focus on high-level peer-to-peer learning and practical experience, providing participants with a deep understanding of currents industry challenges. By building this collective intelligence, we help your organisation’s leaders develop the skills they need to make a lasting impact.
