On Demand Replay: Future Frontiers: Serving the Next Billion in Emerging F&B Markets

Where will your next billion customers come from, and what does it mean for consumer brands?

Over the next five years, more than 350 million young people will enter the workforce, 80% from Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East. These regions are not just demographic stories; they represent the fastest-growing demand centers for food and beverage. The income gap is real (5–8x lower than developed markets), but the spending power is shifting fast.

The Business Imperative

• Africa: 70% under 30, a generation defining future consumption patterns.
• Middle East: 55% under 30, rising expectations reshaping product demand.
• South Asia: 100,000 new job seekers every day, unlocking unprecedented consumer markets.

For F&B leaders, this isn’t a distant opportunity. It’s an imminent inflection point. Will your business capture this demand or cede it to competitors who move first?
