The shutting down of bars, restaurants and other off premises account for approximately 70% of the Vermouth consumption, particularly for cocktail drinks like Martinis and Negronis. There was a reduction in the number of social events, celebrations and parties resulting in low demands for vermouth in these areas.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.

Driving Factors

"Rising Cocktail Culture to Drive Market Advancement"

One of the key driving factors in the Vermouth market growth is the Rising Cocktail Culture. It is also an essential component of various cocktails which include; Martini, Negroni, Manhattan and so on. The increased awareness of the cocktail and especially among the younger group has been identified as the major factor influencing the vermouth market. The increase in home bartending and mixology makes vermouth popular in satisfying these needs effectively. There is no doubt that the craft cocktail revival has helped to place vermouth back into the mainstream. Consumers and liquor enthusiasts are sawing vermouth as a versatile element, which is why bartenders and mixologists are exploring new ways it could be used. This has revived interest in vermouth as a number of brands have started being noticed in next generation bars and restaurants.

"Premiumization and Craft Vermouth to Expand the Market"

Super-premium and craft vermouths are trends in the industry as more consumers look for examples of this product. New producers appreciate the artisanal and 100% natural approach and ‘beyond organic’ quality of botanicals in artisanal and small-batch vermouth. Increased premiumization has put pressure on manufacturers to start producing classy vermouth brands. Flavored and introduced new kinds of vermouth are attracting many customers who are interested in different tastes of fruits, herbs and spices.

Restraining Factor

"Stringent Regulations to potentially impede Market Growth"

There is a risk of government interference through laws regulating the production, distribution and marketing of alcoholic beverages. Market restraints play another important role in defining industry configurations; they include high taxes, import/export constraints, or set legal drinking age. Lack of freedom in advertising specifically in some parts of the world implies that vermouth brands will post low awareness among consumers, and therefore low market access.

Opportunity

"Growing Popularity of Cocktails and Mixology To Create Opportunity for the Product in the Market"

These aspects tie to the recent revival of cocktail culture abetted by consumers’ desire to whip up or order their favorite cocktails at home: Vermouth features in most classic cocktails, such as the Martini, Negroni, and Manhattan. Booming cocktail culture in combination with mixology led consumers to start focusing on selected and superior vermouths which resulted in a chance for brands to develop various and qualitative and mass products appealing to both experts and mesmerized fans.

Challenge

"Lack of Awareness and Misconceptions Could Be a Potential Challenge for Consumers"

Ignorance and misinformation factors pose a huge threat to the growth of this market, by confining alcoholic beverage consumers to a small circle of vermouth users. Most consumers, especially the millennial, do not know that vermouth is used as a mixer in cocktails or taken neat as an aperitif, or even incorporated into recipes. This lack of publishing impedes its appeal in regions apart from basic markets such as Europe.
