Canada's Wine Consumption Growth Outpaces Spirits and Beer

With the market ageing and health concerns growing, Canadian consumers are attracted to red wine's reported health benefits. This has resulted in a steadily increasing per capita consumption of wine in Canada. In contrast, both spirits and beer only saw moderate growth in the review period.

Aiding wine's growth is the recent explosion of moderately priced Australian wines. In 2005, Australia overtook Italy as Canada's second biggest source of wine imports. Many of these products come in the form of popular "critter" wines: strongly branded wines of moderate quality that are good entry points for newcomers.

Premiumisation Increases Across the Market

As disposable income continues to rise, Canadians are becoming more attracted to premium products. Most of the product areas recording the highest growth rates are premium-priced ones. Beverages as diverse as blended malt Scotch whisky, super-premium vodka, regional wines and craft beers are seeing impressive growth. The foodservice and hospitality industry suffered in the initial years of the review period due to several unfortunate events, including "9/11", SARS and the NHL lockout. Now, however, consumers are attracted to the premium products and services in the on-trade channel, such as bottle service and exotic cocktails. As a consequence, ontrade value has risen faster than on-trade volume in all sectors of the market except cider/perry.
