'demand-focused' originates from the combination of 'demand' and 'focus,' where 'demand' refers to the need or desire for goods and services, and 'focus' means to concentrate attention or effort.

The term 'demand-focused' evolved from the business and economic context where companies shifted their strategies to prioritize consumer demands.

Initially, it meant 'concentrating on demands,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
