Sweden Quarterly Beverage Tracker First Quarter 2016 - New Market Research Report

The early Easter was the single most influential factor in shaping demand for beverages in Q1-16. Spirits volumes were high as Swedes stocked up for Easter in March. Traditional Swedish spirits continue to underperform the market. The rise of milk alternatives to white milk has hit demand. The dairy category in general has been the subject of a negative debate and this has had implications for the consumption of white milk.

Key Findings

* Hot drink sales however, wilted in the mild conditions and white milk sales fell back due to negative debates bringing down the whole dairy category.
* Sales of organic products have jumped across the beverage landscape. Organic juices have been helped by some high profile launches. Competitive prices have helped organic dairy products prosper.
* The small still water market made headway in the milder than usual conditions. Private Label products are the main driver but out of the supermarkets Aqua d'or is faring well.
* Beer remains in vogue, with the profile increasing and interest rising in a diverse range of products.
