SAMPLE ANALYSIS
TRENDS
Imported speciality beers such as dark beer, white beer, stout and craft beer are becoming more popular in Taiwan. Many importers and brands introduced different kinds of beers in small batches to provide variety to consumers. In addition, chained convenience stores have frequently held marketing events such as international beer fairs with price discounts in recent years. Taiwan’s beer market has reached maturity and is characterised by stagnant market conditions; therefore, market players have been forced to introduce unique and speciality beers to enhance market sales.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Taiwan Tobacco & Liquor Corp retained its leading position in beer in 2010 with 76% of total volume sales. The company is specialised in beer production with a lengthy history. Local production with fresh taste is a key strength of Taiwan Tobacco & Liquor Corp and the company heavily marketed this to its advantage.
PROSPECTS
Beer in Taiwan is expected to experience stable growth over the forecast period with a total volume CAGR of almost 2%. The strong product developments and marketing of Taiwan Tobacco & Liquor Corp will continuously stimulate market sales. Speciality beer imports will remain a popular trend, and as a result, sales volumes will be positively influenced.
