Increasing coffee consumption, driven by the need to maintain high levels of energy at work, is expected to lead to an increase in the demand for sustainably manufactured kegs. Europe, in particular, is expected to witness a high demand for kegs, due to increasing coffee consumption among individuals. The UK consumes 95 million coffee cups in a day, with an average of 2 cups per person. Nearly 80% of British households enjoy having access to instant coffee, which is expected to boost the kegs market value in the coming years.
Integration of IoT in keg manufacturing; evolving consumer lifestyles; growth of the catering industry; and growth of the beverage industry are the major factors favouring the kegs market development
Modern keg manufacturers are focusing on integrating smart sensors and IoT devices into kegs to ensure optimum product quality and ensure seamless supply chain management.
Post the COVID-19 pandemic, people have returned to old ways of their lifestyle. This has led to a surge in social gatherings and events and a rise in the consumption of alcoholic beverages, which is leading to the kegs market development.
While small catering companies make less than USD 250,000 per annum, large-size companies earn over USD 10 million in revenue. This highlights the thriving status of the catering industry, which is expected to contribute to the market expansion in the forecast period.
The emergence of health and wellness trends, coupled with the transition towards sustainable packaging solutions, have complemented the growth of the beverage industry, which has accelerated the demand for kegs.
As per the International Caterers Association, nearly 68% of all catering companies globally reported revenue growth in 2023. This was largely driven by corporate events (34%), weddings (31%), galas (8%), and other types of events (14%). While in 2022, corporate events accounted for merely 25% of the businesses’ revenue, they became the highest source of revenue for 48% of caterers in 2023. This is expected to have a favourable influence on the kegs market dynamics. Moreover, as per industrial analysis, 85% of caterers worldwide expect revenues to increase post the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby driving the market growth.
