Ethnic culture
The dominance of white Europeans continues to decline throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. In the United States and Canada, white Europeans will drop below 50% of the population within the next decade. The most immediate trend in the United States is the growth of the Asian and Hispanic population.
In 2005, Hispanic buying power became the largest minority market in the United States. Hispanics account for 10 to 15% of the available commerce dollars in every region of the country.
The growth of Asian Americans is double digit, from a low end of 19% in the western states to a high of 31% in the southern states. Indo-Americans, a sub demographic of this group, is among the most affluent Americans and buying power in the hundreds of billions of dollars.
The buying power of African-Americans also continues steady growth. Ethnic cultural buying power is nearing $1.5 trillion in the United States and is proportionately significant in Canada. This provides an excellent vehicle for growth at businesses that intelligently pursue these customers.
The continued and growing acceptance of cultures in the United States and Canada has opened up a marketplace for foreign heritage products. Manufacturers and distributors outside of North America now find a growing marketplace for their products with the Internet taking shape as a strong marketing tool.
Gender culture
The male dominance of Internet purchases is disappearing as women are buying more in cyberspace. This trend will continue in 2007 as females will account for more than 50% of Internet purchases. Particularly strong growth will be among post-college and young married woman between the ages of 24 and 36. This creates an opportunity for companies that previously bypassed the Internet to revisit their strategy.
Single women are expected to make up a larger percentage of the home buying market during 2007.
