Market Report, "Cider/Perry in Ireland", published

Following a hot summer in 2013, sales of cider/perry continued to be boosted by good weather in the summer of 2014. Cider/perry is strongly associated with summer consumption by many Irish consumers, with less interest in these products in times of cold weather. Cider is also benefiting from many consumers seeking lower-strength alcoholic drinks with fruity flavours, particularly as it carries considerably lower excise duty rates in comparison to RTDs/high-strength premixes and is thus more affordable.

Competitive Landscape

Bulmers remains the dominant player in cider/perry in Ireland, accounting for an impressive 75% total volume share in 2014. This is chiefly due to the strength of its eponymous brand, which enjoys unparalleled consumer awareness and distribution in the on- and off-trade in cider/perry. Many consumers view Bulmers Original as an obvious summer drink, with the brand being popularly consumed over ice and while relaxing outdoors. However, the company also offers a range of smaller brands, including Linden Village, Strongbow and Ritz in perry.
