Highlights
Rather than being discouraged by the aging of society, CPG players can acknowledge the revenue potential of appealing to powerful kids demographic. A successful company may not necessarily increase the number of kids who are interested in its products, but instead give their existing consumer base good reason to spend more money on products.
Children are maturing more quickly due to stress and energy-dense foods. This is not common knowledge among parents. Creating awareness about this issue and promoting a healthier lifestyle will therefore appeal to large numbers of parents who are concerned that their kids are undergoing this process of maturation prematurely.
The social pressure of having to be seen with the correct brands is enormous. This can lead to kids being bullied and outcast, and also results in pressure on parents. As kids age, they become more aware of the wrongs of materialism and brand-obsession, but this does not seem to have the effect of lowering their desire for these same products.
