Hard Seltzer Market Outlook, Top Manufacturer and Supply Chain Analysis 2023 – 2030

 Hard Seltzer Industry Overview

The global Hard Seltzer Market size is expected to reach USD 57.34 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 22.9%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Shifting consumer preference for low alcohol content beverages, especially among millennials and the working-class population, is expected to be a key factor contributing to the growth of the market. Hard seltzers are gaining popularity due to the rising preference for low-calorie and low-sugar alternative alcoholic drinks over traditional alcoholic beverages among the health-conscious demographics across the world. Hard seltzer flavors, such as citrus and other fruity flavors, are gaining popularity among consumers. The rising adoption of new flavors among consumers is likely to provide opportunities to the players operating in this market.

For instance, in March 2021 Stewarts Enterprises launched Stewart’s Spiked Seltzer, a line of low-calorie hard seltzers in three flavors, namely Root Beer, Orange Cream, and Black Cherry, to expand in the northeast U.S. Hard seltzer with 5.0% to 6.9% ABV content held the largest revenue share in 2021 and is expected to maintain dominance over the forecast period. The high consumption and wide availability of hard seltzer of this category, especially in the North America region, are driving the growth of this segment. The off-trade segment accounted for a majority of the share in 2021. The increasing availability of such products at Walmart, Target, Costco, and Tesco among others has helped in driving the product sales through off-trade channels.

Furthermore, the closure of on-trade distribution channels due to the outbreak of COVID-19 has also boosted product sale through off-trade channels. The market is consolidated in the U.S. with a major share occupied by Mark Anthony Brands International and The Boston Beer Company. However, it is fragmented in other regions/countries owing to the presence of a large number of players including Mark Anthony Brands International, Anheuser-Busch InBev, The Coca Cola Company, Diageo plc, Heineken N.V., Constellation Brands, Inc., and Constellation Brands, Inc.
