Beer in Thailand
KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
Significant decline in volume sales in the on-trade while the off-trade also contracts as businesses close, consumers are in lockdown and tourism is decimated
The closure of the on-trade leads to a switch out of the category, often to other spirits
Alcohol ban and other restrictions provide strong boost for non/low alcohol beer
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
Boost for local players and their lower prices due pandemic-induced financial constraints
On-trade brands and beer categories take longer to recover than their off-trade counterparts
Sales fade for low/non-alcohol beer while on-trade sales of wheat beer, stout and premium imported beer hindered by ongoing drop in tourism

KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
Steep declines for all wine categories in both the off- and on-trade as government measures to halt the spread of the virus dampen sales

Spirits in Thailand
KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
Local consumers sustain demand for domestically produced spirits via the off-trade, while demand continues to fall for blended Scotch whisky in favour of Japanese whisky
The closure of bars and clubs dampens demand for spirits, especially vodka, gin and rum
The shutdown of the on-trade leads to only minor gains for the off-trade due to the decimation in consumption occasions and socialising opportunities
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
Recovery of premium options likely once the economy rebounds
Return of tourism boosts sales of spirits over the forecast period while industry players resume pre-pandemic marketing strategies
Resumption of pre-pandemic trends once restrictions are lifted and consumer confidence returns though some people may revise their way of life

Cider/Perry in Thailand
KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
Government measures to halt the spread of the virus dramatically impact sales of cider/perry
The decimation of tourism and cancellation of gatherings such as the Songkran festival significantly dampen sales of cider/perry
International brands maintain their lead while domestic brands are also gaining popularity with all companies focusing more on the off-trade during the health crisis
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
Return to double-digit growth for cider/perry despite slow economic recovery in the aftermath of the pandemic
Rebound for the on-trade as consumers revert to type once restrictions are lifted
Freshness, trendy new drinks and the health trend boost demand for cider/perry over the forecast period

Rtds in Thailand
KEY DATA FINDINGS
2020 IMPACT
COVID-19 and government measures to contain its spread decimate sales of RTDs in 2020
Decimation of tourism significantly dampens demand for RTDs
Siam Winery and its Spy brand maintains outright lead in 2020
RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
Return to positive growth for RTDs as the pandemic recedes, foodservice reopens and tourists return to the country
Government initiatives to stimulate national tourism help boost sales of RTDs via the on-trade
Consumers revert to pre-pandemic drinking patterns and thereby boost the on-trade
