The report covers total market (on- and off-premise) and includes valuable insight and analysis on beer market trends, brands, brewers, packaging, distribution channels, market valuation and pricing.
What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
The volume of beer sold on the Swiss market was almost identical in 2012 to the previous year; this was despite the positive influence of the UEFA 2012 European Championship in Q2-12. However, there was some change to the actual structure of the market.
What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
Swiss producers lost out further to imports which increased their position by almost one share point fuelled by the high value of the Swiss franc

Reasons To Buy
Import growth was pulled along by the strong Swiss franc
The volume of beer sold on the Swiss market was almost identical in 2012 to the previous year (at 4,600 th hl); this was despite the positive influence of the UEFA 2012 European Championship in Q2-12
The market is firmly in the hands of the brands of Feldschlösschen (Carlsberg) and Heineken. Their products are widespread and can be found in mainstream retail, discount channels, beverage distributors and in the gastronomy sector
A noticeable trend in respect of packaging was an upsizing in multi-packs.
Politics will play a larger role in 2013; new measures regarding the implementation of the Alcohol Revision Policy (see Taxation and Legislation) will be made, for example the banning of the retail sale of alcohol between the hours of 22:00-06:00. This is expected to have a negative influence on future beer market development.
