HubUX (AKA me) did some research to help marketers understand consumer grocery shopping habits.
On January 3rd, 2022, HubUX launched a quantitative and qualitative study among our panel with the main focus on uncovering how grocery shopping preferences have changed pre and post covid.
Why do we care about this topic? Because late last year the BBC released a story titled, “How the corona virus is changing grocery shopping.” They sighted several statistics like “food delivery,” search frequency pointing to a future where consumers are not going to shop in-person.
To this, I call bullshit.
The participants were recruited through our panel and vetted via a video audition question. The panel was originally sourced through social platforms including Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
All research was handled internally by HubUX.
Headline 1: Today, People Still Use In-Person Grocery Stores more often than digital options.
Based on our research, all consumers more frequently visit their local grocery store versus online alternatives.
The average person shops for groceries 6 times per month.
When I first saw this, I was a little surprised because this stated frequency is the same as what was reported pre covid according to Satistica. You can find a link to that report in the show notes.
But after talking to a few participants, the usual shopper plans a weekly trip and then supplements based on running out of supplies like spices, dry goods, and proteins.
Headline 2: Younger Shoppers Are Looking For Deals
In fact, nearly half of all shoppers go out of their way to check the clearance area wherever they grocery shop.
