Executive summary

Growing selection of hot drinks

The widening range of brands and products was the key trend in hot drinks in Estonia in 2008. As history demonstrates, new products usually emerge in Estonia a few months after the global launch. The hot drinks industry has good growth potential, especially in categories such as instant coffee, premium tea and flavoured powder drinks.

Coffee is the most popular hot drink in Estonia

Coffee was the most popular hot drink type among consumers in Estonia in 2008. The popularity of this beverage can be explained by country’s climate. Moreover, many Estonian consumers choose coffee when eating out. The popularity of espresso continued to grow, with more and more consumers purchasing espresso machines, which led to a wider selection of fresh coffee bean products.

Growing competition in hot drinks

The growing competition in hot drinks has increased the importance of marketing and advertising. The leading companies, including Gustav Paulig Ltd, Kraft Foods Inc, Nestlé SA, Unilever Eesti OÜ, are most likely to continue to advertise aggressively during the forecast period, in order to remain competitive. Hot drinks In Estonia is still dominated by multinational players and the shares held by local brands is small in all categories. In tea, local manufacturers offer various types of fruit/herbal tea, while Kalev AS’s chocolate-based flavoured powder drinks are popular.

Foodservice registers strong volume growth

Along with increasing disposable income, Estonia is experiencing a rapidly growing eating out trend, which is forecast to continue to benefit foodservice volume sales in all hot drinks categories. Foodservice is therefore expected to continue to achieve strong volume growth in hot drinks over the forecast period.

Healthy drinks gain in popularity

The healthy living trend has had an effect on the hot drinks industry in Estonia: the popularity of green tea and fruit/herbal tea is steadily growing. As a result, the leading companies launched new brands and product types, responding to the increasing demand for natural herbal drinks.

Positive forecast for hot drinks

The industry is expected to continue to develop over the forecast period. Sales growth is expected to be especially strong in the categories which are still underdeveloped in Estonia, for example RTD coffee. The most rapidly developing categories in non-alcoholic drinks category remains include functional drinks and RTD tea.
