The Enjoy Life concept is developed from trends in food and research on generation Y.
Why focus on Generation Y?
Because it’s our new generation consumers!
The young people, the students, the young
professionals and young families, more or less in
the age of 20 till 35. Also known as generation Y or
the Millennials.
In 2015, the Y-generation represents 15% of the total
European population! That’s a huge potential of customers for
potatoes. Although 91% of them say they love the taste of fresh
potatoes, 82% of them eat less than two meals a week with fresh
potatoes.
So... what about this Generation Y?
Who are they and how can you reach them?
They are:
- Conscious & Realistic
- Me-centric, they feel important
- Interactive
- Smart
- Visual
So, a brand should:
- Be open &emp; honest and deliver fair products.
- Give them a product which fits their needs
and takes away their ‘fresh potato frustrations’.
- Connect online and look for co-creation possibilities.
- Give open, honest and interesting information.
- Create an attractive design with clear visual
information and less text.
