Representatives of the X generation, born in 1965-1980, are noted as the main driving force in the consumer market. According to Nielsen research, in the US alone, in 2025, representatives of this generation will spend a total of $15.2 trillion on goods and services.
Researchers note that Generation X prioritizes consistency and relies on their own experience in decision-making. They try not to waste money, avoiding impulsive purchases. Therefore, even though they spend a lot of money, they mainly make profitable and necessary purchases.
For comparison, Generation Y - millennials (1981-1996) strive for new experiences, while Generation Z - zummers (1997-2012) rely more on public opinion. The advantage of Generation X is that it saw life before the Internet, quickly adapted to it, and was able to combine offline and online shopping opportunities.
According to experts, such characteristics of Generation X will develop retail trade, support economic growth, and create new opportunities in the market.
