Just Published: "Ireland Food & Drink Report Q2 2016"

Ireland's food and drink industry will benefit from positive spillovers from the country's macroeconomic growth trajectory, and we are particularly positive on the discount and hypermarket sub-sectors of mass grocery retail. The likes of Aldi and Iceland are rapidly increasing their presence in the country, heating up competition with incumbent retailers. The outlook for the alcohol market is less impressive, as per capita consumption drops amid health concerns and policies from the government designed to cut back spending on beer and vodka.

Key Trends & Industry Developments

On a per capita basis, food consumption in local currency is forecast to grow by 2.3% in 2016 and an average of 2.2% over our forecast period to 2020.

The non-alcoholic drinks category, which includes sub categories like coffee, tea and juices, is forecast to record compound annual growth of 2.7% in local currency terms over 2015-2020.
