There’s a new generation in town, and they’re here to shake things up. Introducing: Gen Zalpha.


What years were Zalpha born in?

A hybrid generation of Gen Z and Gen Alpha, Zalphas are between 9-14-years-old. They’re tech savvy (nay, digitally fluent) and have grown up online, meaning that their ideas and inspiration come from across the world. But what does this mean for brands and the future of youth marketing? And how can you futureproof your marketing strategies?


Did you know… 

  • 52% of Zalphas are already showing a preference for brands 
  • 43% have unsupervised access to social media platforms
  • 66% of Zalphas ask their parents/guardian to buy something if it’s from a brand they like
  • 74% of Zalpha parents believe it’s important for their children to be involved in purchases for the household 
  • 42% of Zalpha parents say dining and ordering take-out purchases are mostly influenced by their children
