Description

Following a significant decline in sales in total volume terms in 2023, mostly due to the impact of inflation-driven price increases, beer saw a return to growth in 2024. This modest growth was due to several factors including price stabilisation, revitalised demand, especially through the off-trade, and a solid performance from domestic lager (including premium, mid-priced and economy). The category also benefited from the continued growth and development of non/low alcohol beer.
