Shoppers are increasingly scrutinising every penny they spend, are shopping around more, wasting less, seeking out promotions, planning meals better and taking their time to find the best deals. However, shoppers are not disregarding their values, and in fact, ethical issues such as provenance and heritage are increasingly appealing.

Given these changes in shopper behaviour it is not surprising that two thirds of suppliers told us in a recent survey that the ability to analyse and anticipate future shopper trends is a key priority.

In this interactive session we will help you understand what’s influencing choices and anticipate opportunities for how your business can tailor its offer accordingly.

Who should attend?

This workshop is for you if you want to:

  • Learn the top ten trends influencing shopper behaviour, so you can anticipate the shopper needs of the future
  • Hear our latest shopper research on how shoppers are assessing both value and values when buying groceries
  • Consider how confident shoppers are for the future, and how this will impact their spend while grocery shopping
  • Identify the improvements that shoppers are looking for from companies in 2010 and beyond
  • Take part in interactive sessions to discuss how this affects you, your category and your business planning
