FEATURING AT-HOME ENTERTAINING
As economic concerns begin to dominate the news cycle and consumers feel the pinch of inflation, they are responding by bringing more experiential activities back into their homes. The current re-emergence of gatherings and in-person celebrations means that consumers are doing more at-home entertaining as well. While much of the home + housewares buying during the pandemic was for personal and family use, it is now shifting to things meant to be seen and shared with all loved ones.
