THEME #3

In what ways has COVID-19 impacted consumer behavior?

THEME SUMMARY

Consumer attitudes, behaviors, and purchase habits impacted by COVID-19 include a greater focus on sanitation, increased online ordering for delivery or pick-up, reduced travel, greater use of immune-boosting supplements, and increased importance of health benefits during job searches.

  • Businesses are challenged to make socially-distanced, highly sanitary buying experiences enjoyable for their customers.
  • Supply chain disruptions experienced during the pandemic may get worse due to increased friction between China and other countries around the globe.
