The COVID-19 pandemic forced many people to stay home, impacting household spending patterns.

During the pandemic, grocery spending increased by 51%. A global trend also showed that cooking and eating at home became a new lifestyle. Furthermore, families gathering at home increased food purchases, both raw ingredients and ready-to-eat meals.

Spending on health products also rose by 20%. This was followed by increases in spending on mobile phone credit/data packages (14%), prepared food and beverages (8%), and electricity (3%).

A report by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) indicates that online shopping activity increased. Approximately 46% of respondents who shopped through applications purchased essential goods.
