Wine & Cider Production in Europe industry analysis

Wine and cider production have long histories in Europe, with the continent making up over half of the world’s production of both drinks. However, despite being home to eight of the top ten alcohol-consuming nations worldwide, Europe is witnessing a slump in alcohol consumption, which raises concerns about wine and cider demand. The World Health Organzation reports that the average alcohol intake per person dropped by 21% between 2000 and 2021. This shift is primarily driven by increased health consciousness, prompting many to limit or even stop their alcohol consumption. These trends have contributed to a drop in revenue over the five years through 2024, at an estimated compound annual rate of 4% to reach €47.4 billion, including a projected 2.7% drop in 2024 alone.
