The beer industry was negatively affected by the increase in tax for beer and alcoholic beverages but the improved economic conditions in the country benefited consumption of beer. Cerveceria National (Panama), which belongs to SABMiller, held 55% of the overall beer market. Light beers are growing in volume as consumers are looking for more refreshing product with less alcohol content than the regular versions. With 98% market share, lager remained the dominate type in the market in 2015. Beer market is expected to grow by 1% in 2016.
Key Findings
Although beer consumption volume shrank 2% in 2015, total market value increased by 6%.
Beer imports have risen over the past few periods as local production can't satisfy demand on many occasions. The majority of the imported beer comes from the United States with 73% share.
Mainstream beer is still by far the largest price segment in volume with 54% share. Although consumers were drinking less beer due to the introduction of a tax on beer.
Multipacks of six glass bottles are the most frequent and are usually from imported brands. It is expected that glass packaging will dominate the market for the upcoming years.
