Challenges in Pricing Over The Counter (OTC) Pharmaceuticals

Consumer goods companies benefit from price optimization more than any other industry, but at the same time, it is often an incredibly challenging task.

Thus, the demand for our services in this industry is high and consequently, we have grown in expertise with the many projects we have done.
