What are Gen Z’s favorite brands? In its 46th semiannual survey of such spenders, investment bank Piper Sandler Cos. included these findings for fall 2023:

  • Teen “self-reported” spending was down 1 percent year-over-year, to $2,316. This is the first time a spending decrease has been detected in the survey since before the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • e.l.f. Beauty Inc. remains the top cosmetics brand, increasing 13 points Y/Y to 29 percent for female teens.
  • Nike Inc. maintains its position as the number one favorite brand among teens in both apparel and footwear, with 35 percent and 61 percent mindshare, respectively.
  • Chick-fil-A Inc. stays the highest-ranked restaurant, at a 16 percent share.
  • Apple’s iPhone continues to reign, as 87 percent of teens own one and 88 percent expect the iPhone to be their next mobile device.
  • TikTok is the favorite social platform among teens, followed by Snap and Instagram.

“Our survey points to initial signs of a slowdown in teen spending. Inflation reached its highest mindshare in terms of political and social issues, right behind the environment,” said Edward Yruma, Senior Research Analyst at Piper Sandler.

This latest Piper Sandler Taking Stock with Teens survey netted responses from 9193 teens with an average age of 15.7 years. The fall 2023 survey was conducted from Sept. 4-27.

Ready to Relocate? Wilkerson Makes Your Move Seamless

When Brockhaus Jewelry decided to leave their longtime West Main Street storefront for a standalone building elsewhere in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman faced a familiar challenge: how to efficiently reduce inventory before the big move. Their solution? Partnering with liquidation specialists Wilkerson for a second time. "We'd already experienced Wilkerson's professionalism during a previous sale," Shipman recalls. "But their approach to our relocation event truly impressed us. They strategically prioritized our existing pieces while tactfully introducing complementary merchandise as inventory levels decreased." The carefully orchestrated sale didn't just meet targets—it shattered them. Asked if they'd endorse Wilkerson to industry colleagues planning similar transitions—whether relocating, retiring, or refreshing their space—both partners were emphatic in their approval. "The entire process was remarkably straightforward," Shipman notes. "Wilkerson delivered a well-structured program, paired us with a knowledgeable advisor, and managed every detail flawlessly from concept to completion."
