Household Segmentation

MAY 2024


Future growth hinges on understanding changing household dynamics.


WHAT IS HOUSEHOLD SEGMENTATION?

Household segmentation is a people-focused framework that provides critical insights into a changing U.S. population.

The framework breaks people into segments based on demographics and allows us to identify key trends within each people segment. This empowers us to know how the population is shifting and how beverage consumption is changing.

Understanding the change allows us to speak the same language with our customers and agencies for consistent planning and execution. At its root, the framework identifies must-win opportunities and guides winning long-term strategy.
