With a track record of working with industry giants like Kraft, Mondelez, and Hershey\u2019s, Rich has helped both global CPG leaders and emerging brands create packaging that truly stands out and converts at retail. His work bridges behavioral science and practical insight to help brands make clearer, more confident decisions. In this episode\u2026 Packaging has just seconds to earn a shopper\u2019s attention, and most brands never really know if they\u2019re winning that moment. So what actually makes someone stop, look, and choose one product over dozens of others on a crowded shelf? According to Richard \u201cRich\u201d Moniz, a longtime packaging and shopper behavior researcher, the answer starts with understanding what people notice before they even realize they\u2019re noticing it. He explains that eye tracking reveals the subconscious path a shopper\u2019s eyes take, showing where attention is directed, where it lingers, and where it completely drops off. When brands design with that reality in mind, packaging stops being decoration and starts acting like a silent salesperson that works around the clock. On this episode of the Firebelly Social Show, Duncan Alney talks with Richard \u201cRich\u201d Moniz, Founder of Rich Insights Research, about eye tracking and shopper behavior. They break down how eye tracking works in real shopping scenarios, why minimalism often outperforms cluttered designs, and how brands can stand out and be understood in seconds. Rich also shares why testing packaging before launch can save brands from costly retail mistakes.
