Demographics
In 2021, Switzerland was ranked amongst the top 3 countries to live in the UN’s Human Development Report. This is not surprising, what with their consistently high standard of living, well-developed infrastructure and medicine.
According to the CIA World Factbook, Switzerland’s population exceeded 8.4 million in 2020. While they have an aging population, stable annual growth is projected until 2035, mainly driven by immigration and rising birth rates.
The average age of the Swiss is 42.7 years, and they have a balanced gender ratio of 0.98 men per woman. People aged 0 to 14 make up 15.3% of the population, the group of people aged 15 to 24 is 10.4%, the group of people aged 25 to 54 is 42%, the group of people aged 55-64 year is 13.5%, and the group over 65 years old – 18.3%.

Purchasing Power
Consumption expenditure by private households in 2018 amounted to 357.636 billion Swiss francs (Federal Statistical Office, latest data) and is distributed as follows: housing, water, electricity, gas and other utilities – 25.2%; health – 16.3%; transport, communications – 11.9%; goods and services – 11.6%; food and non-alcoholic drinks 8.9%; restaurants and hotels 8.2%; recreation and culture, education 8.0%; alcoholic beverages, tobacco and drugs 3.6%; furniture, household appliances and routine maintenance of the household 3.6%; clothing and footwear – 2.7%.

A gender discrepancy is observed between the earnings of women and men for all levels of education. In 2019, women earned an average of 72,800 Swiss francs for 90-100% of work, while men earned 86,000 Swiss francs (Federal Statistical Office). For part-time workers, women earned an average of CHF 38,500 and men CHF 48,100.
Consumer Behavior
In an online survey of 2,000 Swiss, 83% of participants indicated that they used digital devices (smartphones, iPads, laptops, etc.) throughout the consumer purchase journey. The devices are mainly used to purchase items, search for pricing information or to compare, post reviews, determine pickup / delivery times, or contact customer service.
The extent to which digital device use affects in-store retail sales is becoming evident through digital influence. Certainly the influence of social media in purchase decisions is also growing.
Channels such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and blogs have a moderate to strong influence for one in five consumers. For millennials, this is almost one in three.

According to the Federal Statistical Office, over 60% of the population speaks German, otherwise known as Schwiizertütsch. A combination of different dialects that were once spoken in Austria and Germany.
Of the non-state languages, the most common is English. It is regularly spoken by 45% of the Swiss population. English is more common in the German-speaking part of the country than in the Italian and French-speaking regions (46% versus 37% and 43%, respectively).
About 5.1% of the population cite English as one of their main languages, followed by Portuguese (3.7%) and Albanian (3.1%).
