• 26% of consumers have changed the brands they buy due to Covid
• 60% of consumers feel an emotional connection to their favourite brands

Global Head of Marketing and Innovation Amy Daugherty said, “I’ve worked in the industry for 20 years and loyalty has always been hard to track. Be it NPS or imperfect panels, you’re often dealing with out of date, unreliable data. This report presents a real-time view of shifting consumer behaviours – not just ‘how loyal’ shoppers are, but what’s driving that loyalty – and that’s completely unique.”

TruRating recently presented at Retail Week Live in London and will be exhibiting at the National Retail Federation’s annual showcase in New York in January 2022.
