Description

Teens’ eating and drinking behaviors are distinct from adults—shaped by lifestage and cohort-defining traits and values. With more social and away-from-home occasions, teens already wield significant influence over household food and beverage choices. Understanding their habits today is essential for brands looking to build trust and loyalty with the shoppers, diners, and spenders of tomorrow.

Eating & Drinking Occasions Landscape 2024 provides an in-depth look into how teens ate and drank in 2024, compared to U.S. adults, while also looking back at the past 6 years to identify key shifts —to help food and beverage companies build and optimize their strategy for the consumers of the future.

Methodology: Hartman's Proprietary Compass Eating & Drinking Occasions Database is a comprehensive database on American eating patterns, grounded in a complete enumeration of past-24-hour eating occasions Fielded as 3 annual waves (April-May 2024; July-August 2024; September-October 2024) among U.S. teens (aged 13-17) and adults (aged 18-78), national sample (balanced by age, gender, region, education, income, number of children, and race/ethnicity) Including 6 years of trended data (2019-2024)

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
