Most Indonesians plan to reduce holiday spending this year, regardless of income level.
The online revolution
More people expect to make a portion of their purchases online post-Covid-19 than before.
Indonesians have intensified the usage of restaurant and grocery delivery and intend to continue these habits post-Covid-19.
More than 60 percent of Indonesian consumers cite value and convenience as drivers for trying new places to shop.
