92% respondents in North America intentional with purchases: Report
About 92 per cent of respondents consider themselves at least somewhat intentional with their purchases, while 40 per cent say they are very intentional, revealed new data from Lightspeed Commerce's survey of 2,000 consumers across the US and Canada. Today's shoppers aren't just buying products—they're also buying into values. Nearly half (45 per cent) say brand values will play a bigger role in future purchases, signalling a clear shift toward mindful, purpose-driven consumption—what Lightspeed calls Valuespending. While price (78 per cent) and quality (67 per cent) remain key priorities, more consumers (62 per cent) now say it's important that their purchases align with their personal values or identity. A Lightspeed Commerce survey has revealed that 92 per cent of North American consumers shop intentionally, with 40 per cent being highly intentional. Values like sustainability, identity, and national pride now influence 62 per cent of shoppers, especially Gen Z. Social media drives brand discovery, while Canadians show stronger local loyalty. 'Consumers today are balancing cost with conscience,' said Dax Dasilva, CEO and founder of Lightspeed . 'It's not always about the lowest price—it's about choosing brands that reflect their values. And when those values align, loyalty can follow more easily. This new era of intentional spending—Valuespending—is reshaping retail and pushing businesses to be more transparent and authentic.' For 32 per cent of shoppers who report making values-based buying decisions, this is a new behaviour. Driving this shift are a stronger belief that their spending has more impact than before (50 per cent), a sense of living in a more divided world (45 per cent), and influence from social media (23 per cent), as per the survey. Younger shoppers are leading the movement. An impressive 96 per cent of Gen Z consumers say they shop intentionally, with 66 per cent noting that it's important their purchases reflect their values. For this cohort, sustainability (37 per cent), national pride (29 per cent), and cultural alignment (26 per cent) top the list of decision drivers. More than half (51 per cent) say their most recent purchases were made with thought and intention Social media plays a major role—61 per cent of Gen Z discover value-aligned brands online, far more than other generations. Notably, 32 per cent of Gen Z shoppers say they fear being judged for buying from the 'wrong' brands—highlighting a generational mix of purpose and peer pressure reshaping the retail space. Canadian consumers are taking principled spending even further. While just 16 per cent of US respondents say they've made purchases in the past six months based on local or national campaigns like 'Buy American,' that number jumps to 38 per cent in Canada. Similarly, 45 per cent of Canadian consumers say supporting local businesses best reflects their values, compared to 36 per cent of US shoppers. This trend points to a growing sense of national alignment at the checkout—especially in the context of trade tensions. 'These insights show us that consumer expectations are evolving,' Dasilva added. 'From sustainability to social impact, the brands that listen, adapt, and 'walk the talk' can thrive in this age of Valuespending.' Fibre2Fashion News Desk (RR)

India's petroleum consumption to surge 5.37% annually till 2030: PHDCCI
According to a recent report by the PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI), India's petroleum product demand is forecast to increase by a CAGR of 5.37 per cent between 2025 and 2030, largely propelled by the manufacturing and transportation sectors. Diesel, petrol, Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF), and petroleum coke are expected to lead this surge. India's economy is projected to grow at over 6 per cent annually, with primary energy demand increasing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4 per cent. This robust economic expansion will inevitably fuel higher energy consumption. Additionally, Natural gas consumption is also projected to see substantial growth, with a nearly 60per cent increase (37 bcm/year) by 2030, reaching 103 bcm/year. The City Gas Distribution (CGD) sector, along with heavy industrial and manufacturing sectors, are anticipated to drive this demand. Despite this rising demand, India faces inherent vulnerabilities as over 85per cent of its crude oil needs are met through imports, positioning it as the world's third-largest oil importer. Furthermore, geopolitical instabilities, particularly in crucial chokepoints like the Hormuz Strait and Suez Canal, pose consistent threats to crude supply and pricing. On the price front, Brent crude prices are forecast to decline from an average of USD 81/barrel in 2024 to USD 74/barrel in 2025 and further to USD 66/barrel in 2026. This decline is attributed to a global expansion in petroleum production outside OPEC+ and a more moderate demand growth. Domestically, India's crude oil production is expected to increase over the short term, reaching 48.5 Million Metric Tonnes (MMT) by FY 2026-27, before a projected decline to 45.5 MMT by FY 2029-30 due to maturing oil fields and limited new discoveries. In contrast, natural gas production is anticipated to rise significantly, reaching 54.7 Billion Cubic Meters (BCM) by FY 2029-30. This growth aligns with the government's objective to increase natural gas's share in the primary energy mix from 6 per cent to 15 per cent by 2030, a commitment driven by cleaner energy goals and reduced carbon emissions.
