Hot drinks has continued to see dynamic growth in 2023 with this being linked largely to the performance of coffee which is the most popular option among Dominicans. Coffee is not only drunk for breakfast, but also at various times of the day, such as after lunch, in the office, and with an afternoon snack, among other consumption occasions.
Fresh ground coffee remains by far the most popular category within hot drinks in Dominican Republic with players competing strongly for share. To differentiate their offer and stimulate demand players are constantly launching new packaging, pack sizes and even different types that include regular coffee, decaffeinated coffee, espresso coffee, and caracolillo coffee.
Industrias Banilejas (Induban) continues to be the undisputed leader within hot drinks in Dominican Republic which is largely thanks to its extensive product portfolio, especially in fresh ground coffee. Within this category the company offers multiple brands and varieties, including its leading brand Café Santo Domingo, which since 2022 has incorporated Gran Origen coffee.
Consumers in Dominican Republic have been returning to their pre-pandemic purchasing behaviours in 2022/2023, which has included a return to shopping in person at different points of sale. Small local grocers (called colmados) continue to have great relevance, with this channel still dominating because these stores are close to consumers’ homes.
Foodservice volume sales of hot drinks are on course to see a full recovery to pre-pandemic levels by the end of 2023. With the pandemic now over and restrictions lifted consumers have returned to socialising and enjoying a cup of coffee with friends and family.
Hot drinks is expected to continue growing over the forecast period in retail volume terms, but at more moderate levels than have been seen in 2022 and 2023. This reflects a stabilisation of demand as consumers return to their old pre-pandemic purchasing behaviour.
