When it comes to conscious choices, it appears Filipinos do care about what they add to their carts. A recent survey by Allianz PNB Life found that about 42% of consumers are more likely to shop sustainably.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In\nan earlier <\/a>report<\/a>\nby Nielsen, it showed that almost three-fourths of consumers around the world\nwould change how they shop “to reduce their impact on the\nenvironment.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“What\nwe are seeing now is ‘the rise of the conscious consumer.’ People are now more\nlikely to favor products marketed as eco-friendly and\/or having a significant\nimpact on the communities around them,” said Allianz CEO and President\nAlexander Grenz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According\nto the study by Allianz, 51% of respondents recognized the challenges of\nenvironmental issues like climate change and how it can negatively affect them\nand future generations in terms of health, wealth, and relationships, among\nothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Respondents\nconsider responsible shopping, together with education and environmental\njustice, to be among the three most important ways to achieve sustainability\nglobally. Additionally, 34% said they are willing to spend more (P5,000 and up)\nfor sustainable products, while 44% would stick to a brand that promotes\nsustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In\nterms of which specific products they bought, 70% of consumers said they always\nwent for sustainable food and beverage. This was followed by services (65%),\nfashion or apparel (46%), and gadgets (29%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Filipinos\nclearly want to be as sustainable as possible with the different products they\nbuy daily,” said Allianz Chief Marketing Officer Gino Riola. “For\nexample, a good number of people would be willing to patronize services like\ninsurance if it were sustainable.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among\nthose surveyed, 44% agreed that health insurance can be green and sustainable.\nForty-three percent said they were likely to purchase this kind of insurance.\nTo address this growing demand, Allianz PNB Life adds more insurance solutions\nto its growing portfolio of sustainable offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
