Company News
Major spirits companies are grappling with a $22 billion inventory glut, the largest in a decade, according to the Financial Times. Diageo, Pernod Ricard, Campari, Brown-Forman and Remy Cointreau are sitting on unprecedented amounts of unsold aged spirits, including whisky, Cognac, tequila and rum. The surplus stems from pandemic-era over-production when home consumption surged. However, consumer demand has since declined due to health concerns and shifts towards THC beverages. Companies have responded by pausing production at distilleries, reducing workforces and closing facilities. Cognac faces particularly severe challenges, with slowing exports and trade issues with China forcing price cuts. Even tequila, which recently outsold American whiskey in the US, is experiencing slowdown. Industry analysts warn that production cuts risk future shortages if demand rebounds unexpectedly.
Diageo North America has acquired Ritual Zero Proof Non-Alcoholic Spirits, the leading non-alc spirit brand in the U.S. since its 2019 launch. This move aligns with Diageo’s Growth Ambition for sustainable growth. Ritual offers non-alc alternatives to whiskey, tequila, gin, rum, and aperitif. The U.S. non-alc category has grown +31% CAGR over five years, with non-alc spirits as the fastest-growing segment. Diageo is the top non-alc spirits player globally, holding leading market shares in major markets.
