Despite uncertainties in the post-pandemic world, the global economy is set to rebound in major countries for 2022 to 2023. In fact, according to the latest EY Future Consumer Index, consumers are responding to crisis by taking active control over their household spending, put less emphasis on products’ brands and shifted priorities towards affordability within a constrained family budget. In short, families continue to spend considerable amounts on a daily basis, but much more wisely.
As new families become more cautious in wellbeing as well as their spending, below are some smart choices to source from to target these customers.
Grandway Healthcare Limited: Blood Pressure Monitor
As people are more health-aware nowadays, regular body check-up at home has become a trend. One key metric is the monitoring of blood pressure which is important for both the old and younger family members. With a compact design and the monitor, display and cuff integrated in one, this innovative device alarms you of any potential health risks at the comfort of your home.
Qivation Company Limited: LED Light Bulb
Having comfortable lighting is essential for studying at the desk or simply any reading/working activities.

Ultmost Electronic Ltd.: Soap Dispenser
This cartoon duck sits in the bathroom but like no other, it does not serve as a toy but rather maintains hygiene by spraying foaming soap upon hand detection.
