Summary
Q3-15 saw some challenges for the German beverage industry including mixed weather; however overall, commercial beverages grew compared to Q3-14. The economy looks to be displaying a positive outlook, aided in part by the influx of refugees as a result of the migrant crisis. Private label suffered significantly as Aldi shifted its strategy to introduce an increasing portfolio of brands, at heavily discounted rates. While this is challenging for PL and competing retailers, consumers benefit from this development as prices remain low and price promotions are seen more frequently.
Key Findings

Lidl announced plans to help dairy farmers and raise their milk prices
There is increasing PL availability in online food retail
Refugees are being seen as a benefit to consumption
