Consumer Profiles for Bahrain

This Consumer Profiles product presents the population of Bahrain, divided into ten easy-to-understand consumer classifications.

The product is based on segmentation criteria including socio-demographics, lifestyle values and orientation, mind-set, motivation and consumer behaviour in Bahrain. The data has been drawn from a representative global survey of around 30,000 consumers with various, relatively homogeneous, populations with different consumer characteristics and buying patterns. The research is then distilled into globally identifiable consumer profiles. Consistent and comparable data, with seamless transitions across borders, make this product ideal for international projects.

Consumer Profiles for Bahrain can be purchased on its own or bundled with GIS polygon data for administrative regions, postcodes and small areas. This effective combination will allow you to perform enlightening analysis supported by stunning visualisations.

Avg Population / Region
The Kingdom of Bahrain is an island country situated in western Asia. An archipelago of around fifty natural islands and thirty manmade islands, it is positioned in the Persian Gulf, between Qatar and Saudi Arabia. It is connected to Saudi Arabia by the King Fahad Causeway. The capital is Manama.
Bahrain was the home of the Dilmun civilization. It was one of the Prophet Muhammed’s first areas of influence in the seventh century. Since 1783, the country has been ruled by the Al Khalifa family. It became a British protectorate in the late 1800s and gained independence in 1971. It is a constitutional monarchy and divided into five governorates.
For centuries, Bahrain has been renowned for its pearl fisheries, but in 1931, oil was discovered and production began. Bahrain has been heavily reliant on oil and petroleum products, and they remain its main exports. Responding to a need for diversification, Bahrain has developed and invested in its service sector, particularly finance and tourism. The city of Manama is home to many financial structures and institutions. Whilst Bahrain is a popular destination for visitors from neighbouring countries, it is becoming more popular with tourists from further afield. Aluminium and construction materials are also important exports for Bahrain, but it imports a lot of food. Despite diversification, unemployment remains an issue, especially amongst younger sector of society. Over 85% of the population live in or around urban areas.
The main religion of Bahrain is Islam, but it remains very tolerant of other faiths. Music, art and literature, especially poetry, are important components of its cultural heritage. Expressionism, surrealism and calligraphy are amongst a wide range of artistic influences. Bahrain organises several festivals each year. Soccer is the most popular sport, but Bahrain is recognised on the cricket and martial arts circuit. It hosts a Formula One Grand Prix annually.
On the world stage, Bahrain is a member of the United Nations and the Arab League.

Consumer Profiles - Type A

These consumers have the highest per-capita income of all segments. They tend to be young and successful, with a significantly higher level of education than most other groups and are self-employed or in managerial positions. They don’t have children yet and tend to live in metropolitan areas either alone or with partner/friends. As a high disposable income group, these people typically spend the most money on clothes. In terms of choice of smartphone, Apple is preferred to Samsung.

Consumer Profiles - Type B

This group is older, with grown-up children who have left home. They have a high per-capita income but would rather ‘go shopping’ than buy online. As consumers, they are brand-loyal and will search for quality products from favoured retailers.

Consumer Profiles - Type C

Older, and generally living alone or as part of a couple, these people have an above average per-capita income, but an average household income.

Consumer Profiles - Type D

As a rule, they tend to be conspicuous consumers with high expenditure on watches, jewellery and sporting goods. They are environmentally aware and look for quality and innovation in a product.

Consumer Profiles - Type E

This segment represents consumers with the highest household income and the highest expenditure across most product groups.
