Alcoholic beverages accounted for total revenues of over US $1.6 trillion in 2020 across 150 countries. In volume terms, 298 billion liters of alcoholic drinks were sold in 2020.
The alcoholic beverage market has been characterized by saturated volume sales in many mature markets around the globe. The industry tries to tackle this in several ways. Firstly, there is increased activity on mergers and acquisitions as companies strive to widen their portfolio. Secondly, there is a big drive towards expansion into emerging markets. Premiumization, low alcohol, non-alcohol, biodynamic, eco-friendly products, methods to mitigate health effects, and the changing lifestyles of the consumer all play a part in the strategic direction of companies within this industry segment.All the mentioned trends have a significant impact on the business of beverage companies as they manage their supply chain architecture and navigate the compliance challenges of an ever more fragmented and complex market environment.
