With consumers cutting back on restaurant trips, increasing their reliance on in-home meals, and using kitchen appliances more often, there’s at least a glimpse today of consumer behaviors in 2020. Many of these shifts stem from cost pressures forcing consumers to find savings wherever possible. Consumers shifting behaviors can be stressful for marketers, but also represent opportunities for growth by attaching to those needs.

They must find innovative ways to make meal preparation easier and solve other problems consumers face. Circana’s new Inside America’s Kitchens report examines these trends and provides insights on implications for the food and beverage and home industries.
