Impact of COVID-19 on Luxury Wines and Spirits Market and the Way Forward - ReAnIn Report

HYDERABAD, India, March 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- COVID-19 had an adverse impact on the majority of the industries and the impact was much more severe on the restaurant and hospitality sector. Luxury or fine wines are generally bought by dining venues such as restaurants and hotels, whose revenues have significantly decreased during the pandemic. Since the pandemic affected restaurants and hotels business, the sale of luxury wines and spirits decreased dramatically through these channels. The market has bounced back in 2021 but has not reached to pre-pandemic level.

The way forward: Recovery funds from wines & spirits manufacturers and investment in digital infrastructure could revive the growth

According to an estimate, a large chunk of the restaurants (up to 60%) was closed permanently due to COVID and may never re-open, while others may need financial support to re-open. As this is the primary distribution channel for the majority of the wine manufacturers, few companies are coming forward to help them. For instance, in June 2020, Diageo plc launched a USD 100 million recovery fund to help pubs and bars welcome back customers after lockdown.

Furthermore, companies are investing heavily in digital infrastructure to boost direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales and compensate for revenue loss from restaurants. According to Liv-Ex, about 80% of the people involved in the wine business expect that technology will make buying fine wine easier in the next five years.
