Other hot drinks in Saudi Arabia experiences a sharp downturn in volume, contrasting with modest growth in the wider region and highlighting the ongoing impact of price sensitivity and volatile cocoa costs. Despite retail value rising, growth is largely driven by inflation and pack size strategies, as rising household incomes are insufficient to counteract affordability challenges and shifts in discretionary spending. Competitive pressures intensifies as multinational brands like Nestlé defended share through promotions and value packs, while a proliferation of smaller brands and local producers respond to excise tax-driven reformulation, channel fragmentation, and consumer migration to discounters and digital platforms. These dynamics point to an environment where agility in pack architecture, pricing, and product innovation is essential for success.
