Figuring out how to price your consumer product to optimize sales is a challenge every new business faces. This flash report from Moonshot Collaborative gives you exclusive insights into how plant-based buyers think about price premiums. It's your key to understanding the role that price plays as plant-based products move from niche to mainstream, and how to best position your own products in a quickly changing landscape.
Background: Younger generations - Generations X, Y, and Z - are significantly more willing to pay a premium, and a much larger one, than the 鈥淏oomer鈥 and 鈥淪ilent鈥 generations. This aligns with what we know to be true of the younger generations; they are more willing to pay for products that align with their worldview and they are still in their income-generating years. This is especially true of Generations Y and Z.
Takeaway: Targeting younger generations makes sense for many emerging categories and brands that sell at a premium. For brands considering targeting the Boomer and/or Silent generations, it鈥檚 important to know that there is very little tolerance for price premiums among these groups. At the same time, for a company whose products are comparably priced to conventional, animal-based meat and dairy, the older generations represent a largely untapped market that is hungry for these products (if the price is right).
