Why this segment?

  • Worldwide, we have a “silver tsunami”. Stats SA talks about 7m SA 60-plussers (9% of SA’s population), forecast to reach 16% by the year 2050. This is a generation of 60-plussers that has massive potential and is one of the most exciting growth markets available to brands today.
  • The “silver economy” represents a powerful market for brands, growing both in numbers and value while remaining largely untapped in terms of its consumer potential
  • We can provide brands with the opportunity to connect with the 60-plus market. YEI has a good insight as to what this generation needs.
