Fall 2021 Trends

Where do we go from here?

It’s the question everybody’s been asking. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, we have been plunged into “the new normal” – but just how much has changed since the early days of lockdown?

At Provoke Insights, we have our fingers on the pulse of developing habits, transforming behaviors, and emerging trends. Twice a year, we develop an in-house survey designed to track consumer purchasing habits and routines. Our rich data sets allow us to compare shopping behaviors, pandemic-related concerns, and industry trends. 

We are excited to announce our third wave of research, the Fall 2021 Trends Report. In this wave, Provoke Insights surveyed 1,500 Americans between the ages of 21 and 65 to see how these trends have evolved, which concerns remain, and how these factors impact various industries. Our data can be vital to brands to help them navigate today’s changing markets.

It’s on us.
