Generation Z is the most ethnically and racially diverse generation in the country’s history. They care about owning. Teens prefer to shop online versus in stores, but they prefer sites that have actual, physical stores versus retailers that operate on a strictly ecommerce basis. Teens — and Gen Z in general — will stay away from massive retailers. Value fun but value privacy more — use ephemeral apps like Snapchat, YikYak, Kik. They appreciate experiences, and marketers will have to think outside traditional tactics to get their attention.
AKA: centennials, post-millennials
Generation Z consists of those born between 1996 and 2010.
