Summary

GlobalData is carrying out weekly consumer surveys in 11 countries between 25th March and 31st May 2020, to track consumer sentiment and shopping behavior during the Coronavirus (COVID19) pandemic. The sample size is 500 respondents per country, per week.

The two countries in scope for the Americas are Brazil and the USA. Questions are consistent every week, and cover consumer opinions about COVID-19, buying behavior and product choices and impact of the Coronavirus (COVID19) outbreak on consumers' lifestyle and activities. This report summarizes the key findings from responses in week 3.

Key Highlights

The US now has the most confirmed cases globally, which will undoubtedly be contributing to concern amongst citizens. Whilst in Brazil, it is expected that the true number of COVID-19 cases in much higher, due to a lack of testing and failure to report cases[1]. This uncertainty will continue to cause concern amongst citizens.
- 66% of Brazilians are now spending more time browsing social media than before the COVID-19 outbreak, with an enormous 31% saying they spend all day using social media.

However, 8% of Brazilians and 11% of Americans are going to casual restaurants more frequently then before the coronavirus epidemic.
