LONDON, Sept 6 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Market research company Euromonitor International revealed today the eight megatrends set to shape industries and consumers through to 2030.
According to the report, ‘Megatrend Analysis: Putting the Consumer at the Heart of Business’, a megatrend is a long term shift in behaviour or attitude that has a global impact and crosses multiple industries. One standout megatrend identified by Euromonitor International is the “Middle Class Retreat” asserting that the middle classes in developed markets struggle to maintain the economic position they enjoyed before the global financial crisis. “An aspect of this megatrend is the idea of ‘Glorified Frugality’ which sees the middle class consumer celebrating how little something costs, whilst also reducing waste. To win these frugal consumers, businesses must design for longevity, emphasising good quality, re-use and ease of maintenance and look for ‘revolutionary’ takes on value,” states Euromonitor International’s Director of Economies and Consumers, Sarah Boumphrey.
