Bottoms up! A healthy wine market
China is the world's largest Bordeaux wine importer in terms of both volume and value, far ahead of its nearest followers. During the period, China's imports reached 63 million liters, more than twice the volume of Germany, which ranked second globally.
Meanwhile, China's import value stood at 649 million euros, 55 percent higher than the United Kingdom, which came second in value, CIVB data showed. In the meantime, despite the impact caused by the economic slowdown on the retail market, China's imports of Bordeaux wine registered much stronger growth than traditional markets such as Germany and the UK.
Diageo in high spirits as sales soar in China
According to a recent report by Frost & Sullivan, a US-based market consultancy, consumption of alcoholic drinks in China is expected to reach 84.37 billion liters in 2016, which represents an average annual compound growth rate of 5.9 percent from 2012.
Diageo's turnover in China increased by 16 percent year-on-year during the 2012 year ending June, while sales of high-end spirits were up more than 50 percent, compared with double-digit growth for its business in general.
Diageo expects that 50 percent rate to continue, as it invests more in its quality brands, aimed particularly at China's high-spending, burgeoning middle class.
