Türkiye: Consumer Profile

October 2026

Türkiye is a large, young and highly urban market shaped by persistent high inflation. The population is still young but is ageing quickly as fertility falls below replacement. Single person living is rising fast, and female participation in work and household headship remains strikingly low. Despite the squeeze, Turkish consumers remain quality-conscious and health-focused, willing to pay more for trusted, natural and premium products where budgets allow.
