Report Overview
Due to rising affluence and increasing levels of health consciousness, growth in alcohol consumption has slowed in Western markets in recent years, while the sales of brands perceived as ‘premium quality’ have risen. Meanwhile in the developing world, wealthier consumers are following the same trends, whilst lower-income consumers are increasing their consumption of beer and other branded alcoholic drinks as they are increasingly able to afford them. Consumption occasions have has also changed. In markets that traditionally have a strong on-trade focus such as the UK, people are drinking more at home than in bars, restaurants and clubs – a trend that was established by the time of the 2007-2010 global financial crisis, but that was also exacerbated by its impact on incomes.

It will provide insight into effective premiumization strategies and make recommendations on how premium brands can succeed in an economically challenging and competitive market.

Key issues…
- Premiumization involves persuading consumers to pay more for the same volume of alcohol, by providing them with product and brand attributes that fit with their desire to improve their lives, or their perception of their lives.
- The key consumer-level factors that drive premiumization are the desire to improve social status, the desire to improve taste experience, and the desire to have a better understanding of the products they consume.
- The global financial crisis has slowed the trend towards greater going-out spend in total, while continuing to hit on-trade drinking behaviors. This has reduced the opportunity for premium drinks launches, which have tended to start in the on-trade.
- Due to the recession and low consumer confidence, going-out spending has fallen in developed markets and there is evidence of consumers switching to cheaper brands of alcohol. However, growth remains strong in the developing world.
- The concept of ‘masstige’ and democratized luxury has affected consumers across all income groups. Going forward, consumers will continue to expect to pay bargain prices for high-quality products, and retailers will force manufacturers to oblige.
