Executive summary

Hot drinks show dynamic value growth

In 2008, hot drinks enjoyed further progress. The tendency towards more quality and premium products (expensive tea varieties, gourmet coffee and souvenir packaging) reflects the situation on the hot drinks market, where value growth exceeded volume growth. The tea sector overall showed stagnation in volume terms due to its saturation, although an increasingly health conscious nation showed increasing interest in fruit/herbal and green tea. The hectic and busy lifestyles impacted sales in the coffee sector, especially in the on-trade. The other hot drinks sector continued its development due to improvements in the products’ distribution.

Continuous consumer shift towards quality and convenience

2008 was notable for consumers shifting towards quality and convenience in the hot drinks market. Companies expanded their brand portfolios with quality premium products. The tea sector was boosted by premium tea bag varieties. Instant coffee grew due to mixes like 3-in-1, 2-in-1 and cappuccino, which are quick and convenient to consume. Speciality coffee sales affected on-trade development. Hectic and busy consumer lifestyles led to consumer preferences for convenient quality products. Autumn 2008 was also notable due to the start of the financial crisis in Russia. Constant discussion of the crisis in the media all over the country put Russian consumers into a state of panic. This resulted in customers being more price conscious, even if their budget was not affected.

Local players continue cooperating with multinationals

A number of partnerships were arranged between local manufacturers and multinational companies in the hot drinks market. The majority of local players have their own packaging or manufacturing plants where they produce hot drinks products under licence or just package imported bulk. The number of such cooperations continues to grow, for example, recently, Grand CD OOO created the joint enterprise Santy together with Tata Tea Ltd. Multinationals, investing money into Russian manufacturing facilities, expanded the coverage of their brands, and this cooperation also helped to strengthen the local brands. When the banks’ restrictions on credit hit the market, this type of cooperation seemed like the only way for local players to survive and stay in the market.

Difficulties in distribution channels

Banks’ restrictions on credit put retailers in a difficult situation. Retailers are attempting to pass some of their obligations on to the suppliers, in the form of delays and even partial payment halts. Bankruptcies among regional distributors and trade networks is expected. Major reorientation towards the hypermarkets and discounter retail format are the current strategy of the leading retailers in Russia. The share of independent small retailers is declining.

Consequences of the global financial crisis

Russia is experiencing various consequences because of then credit crunch crisis. The hot drinks market will be affected through retail mostly. Retailers may reduce the purchasing amount because of the absence of free money resources. Decreasing consumer demand is not expected. Slight changes in purchasing trends may occur, like reorientation towards economy and medium-priced products, following the continuous premiumisation trend during 2007/2008. According to Euromonitor International estimates, the situation will become stable by 2010.
