Beer in Nigeria
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
PROSPECTS
STRONG PERFORMANCE PROJECTED FOR BEER OVER THE FORECAST PERIOD
Total beer volume sales in Nigeria are expected to increase strongly over the forecast period thanks to population growth and economic improvements. Volume growth will also be boosted as consumers continue to switch to more affordable economy products, particularly in lager.
COMPETITION BETWEEN LAGER PRICE BANDS INTENSIFIES
Economy lager overtook mid-priced lager in 2015 to become the biggest lager category in Nigeria in total volume sales terms. The ascent of economy lager in recent years has been largely driven by growing consumer appreciation for its affordable price positioning.
HIGHER-PRICED BRANDS HAVE GOOD POTENTIAL IN NON-ALCOHOLIC BEER AND STOUT
A trend towards lower-priced products was also evident in non-alcoholic beer and stout over 2012-2017. However, demand for mid-priced and premium brands is expected to recover in both categories over the forecast period.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
NIGERIAN BREWERIES CONTINUES TO DOMINATE BEER
Nigerian Breweries remained the clear leader in beer in total volume sales terms in 2017. Its commanding lead was due to its ownership of well-established and popular local brands such as Star, Gulder, Goldberg, 33 Export and Life Continental.
ECONOMY BRANDS GAIN GROUND IN 2017
Players focused on economy brands performed best in beer in 2017 as disposable incomes stagnated due to the sluggish economic recovery. The largest overall volume share gains were recorded by AB InBev subsidiaries Pabod Breweries and International Breweries with their respective brands Hero Lager and Trophy.
NIGERIAN BREWERIES LEADS INNOVATION
Nigerian Breweries led new product development activity within beer in 2017. In an attempt to curtail the declining trend in its overall volume share and offset poor performances by mid-priced brands, particularly Gulder, the company repackaged its economy brand Life Continental Lager.
