Rise in Sales on the Back of Instable Behaviour Sales of alcoholic drinks enjoyed faster growth in 2007 over the previous year in comparison to the review period CAGR. Generally, Poles display swift changes in consumer habits and for this reason sales soar during good economic times and suffer from a steep decline during bad economic periods.
Poles Desire for More
Polish consumers are shifting their attention towards higher-priced alcoholic drinks. Super-premium alcoholic drinks enjoyed the highest growth in 2006 over the previous year and premium brands of spirits are in demand. In addition, consumers with average incomes or lower than average incomes display need for higher-priced products. In response, manufacturers of vodka moved economy vodkas into higher-price bands.
Multinationals in the Lead
Multinationals lead sales of alcoholic drinks thanks to acquisitions and through organic growth. On the one hand, drinks giants such as Diageo strive to win Polish consumers on the back of international brands. On the other hand, Pernod Ricard turned the domestic Wyborowa brand into a global trade mark.
Independent Food Stores Still Strong
Independent food stores are the major distribution channel for alcoholic drinks in Poland. The position of independent food stores in Poland is very strong in comparison to neighbouring countries as Hungary, the Czech Republic or Slovakia. Poles mainly purchase alcoholic drinks on impulse. This holds back the progress of supermarkets/hypermarkets within sales of alcoholic drinks. Supermarkets/hypermarkets also tend not to be present in rural areas.
Growth Expected Over Forecast Period
Sales of alcoholic drinks are forecast to witness good growth during the forecast period. Good value for money products will push sales of beer. Consumer habits will be beneficial for spirits. The way ahead for still light grape wine will not be easy. A bottle of table wine of good quality is priced close to a bottle of vodka, with this pricing not expected to change over the forecast period. Polish consumers will be still vodka and beer aficionados. The brown spirits and grape wine will see the solid growth, albeit from a low base. Brown spirits and grape wine are still too higher priced in relation to vodka or beer. The expected rise in disposable incomes will drive demand for alcoholic drinks.
