USA: Craft beer cuts the on-trade market share of America’s top 25 beer brands
|
Craft beer has helped cut the on-trade market share of the top 25 US beer brands by four percentage points over the past year, a new survey has revealed.
At the start of last year, the top 25 brands accounted for 57.5% of the US on-trade market, tracking firm Guestmetrics reported on August 13. The most recent quarter saw the share fall to 53%.
Guestmetrics said the drop was “largely reflective” of the rise in craft beer, as well as growth in innovations.
Despite the market share drop, top 25 beer brands Blue Moon, Stella, Dos Equis, Corona Light, Shock Top and Negra Modelo all posted “robust growth” in the past year.
GuestMetrics figures are based on around US$8 bln of annual transactions in US restaurants and bars.
Last week, Guestmetrics said Anheuser-Busch InBev's Budweiser Black Crown gained an 11 percentage-point jump in US on-trade distribution in the first half of this year, second only to the Boston Beer Co's hard cider brand Angry Orchard.

Ukraine: Beer sales estimated 13% lower in July this year
|
According to preliminary estimations, Ukraine’s beer sales declined by 13% in July as compared to the same month last year, Delo reported on August 9.
Last month’s results are the worst so far this year. In January – June, sales fell by 1.5%. In the first seven months of this year sales were down by 3.9% as compared to the same period in 2012.
According to Efes Ukraine, general negative tendencies in the nation’s economy were the main factor contributing to the decline. Besides, beer prices have increased by average 10% since the beginning of this year, and the weather so far has been colder than last year.

Japan: Beer shipments up 3.3% in July
|
Beer and quasi-beer shipments in July rose 3.3 percent from a year before to 44,374,000 cases, the first rise in two years for the month, data from four major brewers in Japan showed on August 12.
The growth was led by brisk shipments in early July amid heat waves in the Kanto region, where the rainy season ended earlier than usual.
Of the total, beer shipments rose 5.6 percent to 23,925,000 cases, with growth in sales to both restaurants and households.
Shipments of beer as gifts were up 8.3 percent, marking the first rise since 1997 for the month, backed by the popularity of high-end premium beer products.
Meanwhile, shipments of so-called third-segment beerlike beverages, which are cheaper than regular beer as they contain little to no malt, grew 2 percent to 14,763,000 cases, up for the seventh straight month.
Those of happoshu low-malt quasi-beer dropped 2.6 percent to 5,686,000 cases. Each case contains the equivalent of 20 633-milliliter bottles.
Asahi Breweries Ltd. and Suntory Liquors Ltd. logged year-on-year increases in beer and beerlike beverage shipments due to strong gift product sales.
