Blue Yonder, the world leader in digital supply chain transformation, today released the results of its fourth annual Consumer Sustainability Survey, highlighting consumer spending habits, concerns and overall sentiment around brands’ sustainability initiatives. The survey, which has expanded to poll consumers across Australia and New Zealand (ANZ), France, Germany, U.K., and U.S., found that most respondents say it is important to align their purchasing decisions with sustainability.

Findings suggest that while consumers are willing to pay more for sustainable, routinely purchased products such as food, beverage, beauty, and cleaning products, they are not as willing to do so for higher-cost occasional purchases such as electronics and automobiles. Findings suggest this discrepancy is tied to the high costs associated with sustainable product options and consumer wariness of brand sustainability claims and messaging.
