In less than a decade the subscription economy has grown by 435%. The lockdowns of 2020 and 2021 saw consumers turning even more to subscription services for home delivery of items ranging from wonky veg, pet food and toilet roll.
The demand for scheduled consumables shows no sign of slowing, with more and more products available on a weekly, monthly or quarterly basis.
Discussion points in the podcast
