Summary CEE consumers still display distinctive characteristics – but attitudes and behaviours are converging with those in the west Continued convergence not inevitable – highly dependent on continued economic growth CEE not at the leading edge of many trends such as ethical purchasing and show more traditional attitudes towards consumption, materialism and luxury Leisure and tourism is an increasing consumer spending priority – though again not as likely to be looking for ‘leading edge’ holiday experiences Highly mobile younger populations create a strong VFR market
