Sales of energy drinks dropped sharply in 2020 as Peru introduced a range of COVID-19 measures which resulted in consumers being confined to their homes for long periods. However, as consumers adapted to the new normal producers of energy drinks have focused on new consumption occasions within the context of the switch to teleworking.
Despite Peruvians becoming increasingly health focused, in terms of what they eat and drink, consumers tend to opt for energy drinks that provide the biggest energy boost rather than those that are health-focused. This is largely due to the fact that energy drinks are targeted at younger consumers groups, such as students or young professionals, who are known for enjoying busy, active lifestyles.
The reopening of on-trade outlets supported a return to growth for energy drinks through this channel in 2021. Nevertheless, sales remained below pre-COVID-19 levels with many consumers still limiting their social engagements due to health and economic concerns.
The political, economic and health situation remains uncertain in Peru and it is expected that at least in the short term many consumers will continue to exercise caution in their spending. As such, producers of energy drinks may need to address their pricing strategies if they are to deliver volume gains over the forecast period.
Since the adoption of Peru’s new Labelling Law in mid-2019 consumers have become increasingly conscious of what goes into the products they consume. As such, consumers are increasingly seeking out products which use natural ingredients, with this trend expected to feed into energy drinks over the forecast period.
Sales of energy drinks are expected to increase over the forecast period as consumers are allowed to return to their increasingly busy lifestyles. Consumers are likely to seek to improve their performance at work as economic activities resume and many will likely turn to energy drinks to help them achieve this.
