The brewing category is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7% from 2023 to 2030. The Asia Pacific is the largest geographic segment in this category with a 30% market share. Brewing is a method for controlling how water, starch, yeast, and hops interact to produce beer. The growth and demand for this category will be driven by an increase in the demand for beers from around the world as well as an increase in the consumption of craft brews.
The key trends in recent years are driven mostly by consumer preferences, technological advancements, and sustainability considerations. These include craft beer, microbreweries, non-alcoholic or low-alcohol beers, experimental and innovative flavors, collaboration, and limited-edition releases. These trends can vary across different regions and markets as new trends continue to emerge as the category industry evolves.
This category is a highly fragmented market due to the presence of numerous global, regional, and local players. Several large players are accounting for a large majority of sales in this category whereas smaller companies have a significant opportunity to compete and expand their market share. Numerous small breweries are currently offering high-quality products, enabling them to effectively compete in the market. This is especially advantageous due to the prevailing market trends favoring craft beer and alternative alcoholic beverages. As consumer preferences shift towards unique and artisanal offerings, microbreweries are well-positioned to fulfill these demands and attract customers. Consequently, the brewing category presents substantial growth potential for businesses operating in this segment.
