(Marketingmagazine.com.my) –  Travellers in Malaysia are a diverse lot: multi ethnic by nature, unique in shopping habits and needless to say disparate in travel preferences.

Mindshare set out on a segmentation exercise and identified four consumer clusters basis GroupM’s proprietary research tool 3D.

The tool measures three aspects of the marketplace – consumer relationship with brands, attitudes and lifestyle of consumers and media behaviour. (Attached is the infographic that details out the various segments).

According to Dheeraj Raina, head of strategic planning at Mindshare Malaysia: “Despite consumer confidence being low over the past two years, we noticed an upswing in the travel intent of the Malaysian consumers. When we deep dived into the inherent motivations behind traveling, four distinctive segments emerged.

“While Faith tourism is at a nascent stage right now, it will be the segment to watch out for in future.”
