2025 Developments
In 2025, alcoholic drinks in Peru demonstrated resilience with volumes reaching 1,536 million litres and value sales climbing to PEN19 billion, supported by both affordability-driven purchases and a sustained premium offering, despite a slow economic recovery. The landscape was characterised by pronounced market polarisation, as discounters and convenience chains gained traction with cost-conscious consumers, while higher-income groups continued to support premium brands, particularly in beer and spirits. RTDs was the fastest growing area, fuelled by innovation and shifting preferences among younger adults, while beer remained central but faced limited growth, and wine and spirits showed only modest advances. Growing competition in RTDs and the expansion of exclusive brands in the modern trade highlight the need for manufacturers to balance value, differentiation, and relevance for emerging consumption occasions.
