"Slovenia Quarterly Beverage Tracker First Quarter 2016" now available at Fast Market Research

On-premise consumption of beverage products reported positive development, although Q1-16 was the off-season. Beer consumption remained broadly stable in Q1-16, due to its popularity and sociable image. FABs, from a low base, saw the largest expansion in Q1-16 because of the variety of popular pre-made cocktails. Dairy drinks consumption remained broadly stable in Q1-16, supported by promotional discounts and cheap imported milk. Consumption of hot beverages was driven by promotional discounts and influenced by weather conditions in Q1-16

Key Findings

* Packaged water started the year with good growth in Q1-16, driven by the popularity of carbonated water and its health appeal. The price positioning of carbonated water is also attractive to consumers as an alternative to other rtd beverages.
* Private Label products performed below expectations in the soft drinks market, though there were mixed results by individual beverage categories.
* Beer benefited from its popularity and sociable image. Local beer performed broadly in line with the market, while discounters' outlets made gains by predominately selling imported Private Label products.
* Consumption patterns for dairy drinks were broadly unchanged, with a focus on economically-priced products, as consumers are still reserved with their spending habits.
