DUBLIN, Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Liquor Industry in South Africa 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Retail revenue in the liquor industry, which is still recovering from alcohol bans during the pandemic, declined in 2022. The poor economic outlook and power cuts are likely to result in a slowdown in liquor sales, and the wine industry is already attributing the recent lower harvest to energy shortages.

The wine industry faces a long-term decline in the number of producers and area under vineyards, as well as other challenges such as land reform and climate change. Globally the wine drinking population is also declining. The illicit alcohol industry has grown in recent years particularly following alcohol bans during the pandemic.

Foreign Ownership

Competition in the sector is set to increase following approval in March 2023 of Heineken's €2.4bn acquisition of Distell and Namibia Breweries, a deal which increased the share of revenue that goes to foreign owned companies in the sector to more than three-quarters of total liquor revenue. Heineken's acquisition will create a new regional group to compete with larger rival AB InBev and spirits producer Diageo.

Trends

Online sales make up a very small percentage of liquor sales, but are growing, mostly among young affluent consumers. The premiumisation trend continues apace, with premium brands growing faster than affordable brands. While it remains a small but noticeable trend in South Africa, mostly confined to middle class consumers, the low and no-alcohol beverages market is growing globally.
