Report: COVID-19 pandemic brings many changes to consumer behaviorChinese consumers have become more conservative regarding buying nonessential goods and are paying more attention to the quality of purchased products, with homegrown brands gaining increased popularity among millennial and Generation Z consumers amid the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a report released by global consultancy PwC.
The report said 44 percent of Chinese consumers expect to spend more on groceries over the next six months, while a growing number of respondents will reduce their expenditure on nonessential consumption in fashion, health and beauty products, as well as consumer electronics.
The gap is mainly attributable to some nonessential consumption sectors including education, entertainment, transportation and healthcare.
However, recovery in nonessential consumption sectors, such as durable goods and services, is slower than expected, with the gap between current consumption levels and the trendline level shown before the COVID-19 outbreak still relatively large.
