Municipalities in the Noord-Brabant and Limburg regions of the Netherlands have launched the ‘Koopstromenonderzoek 2026’. This large-scale study, conducted by research agencies Ipsos I&O and Movares, aims to analyze the shopping, dining, and hospitality habits of local residents and visitors.

The research seeks to address the shift toward online shopping and its impact on physical retail areas. By comparing current patterns to the previous 2021 study, officials and entrepreneurs intend to use the data to make informed decisions to keep town centers and village hubs attractive and future-proof. 

Participation involves online questionnaires, with selected households receiving invitations via mail during September and October. The study also includes residents from adjacent areas in the Netherlands and Belgium.
