Alcoholic drinks in Algeria recorded a positive performance in 2023, although the growth was relatively lower than in 2022. The price hikes, especially for wine and spirits, led to stronger growth in total value terms compared to total volume terms.
Alcoholic drinks saw a decent performance across all areas, driven by population growth and a constant rise in the number of potential alcohol consumers. Beer was the best performing alcoholic drink in terms of volume sales growth in 2023, benefiting from its strong popularity in Algeria.
Beer, the largest category in volume terms, is dominated by multinationals, namely Groupe Castel and Tango Heineken, which produce their international brands locally. Wine is the second-largest category, with the biggest shares held by local producers, particularly the state-owned SOTRAVIT (formerly ONCV) and the leading private producer Les Grands Crus de l'Ouest (GCO).
Food/drink/tobacco specialists continue to account for nearly all retail sales of alcoholic drinks in Algeria. With no change in the law governing the retail distribution of alcoholic drinks only a limited number of retail outlets are allowed to sell these products, while obtaining a permit for stores for the sale of alcoholic drinks remains complicated in Algeria.
The off-trade channel continued to account for a major portion of total alcoholic drink volume sales. Meanwhile, on-trade sales varied depending on the drink.
It is expected that alcoholic drinks will post a positive CAGR, benefiting from constant population growth and rising consumer awareness. This growth will also be attributed to the high popularity of beer, the most dominant category.
