The gin market size is expected to grow by $6.68 billion during the forecast period of 2021-2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.59%, according to a study conducted by global market research firm, Technavio.

This market growth forecast is a result of the expansion of organized retailing, the growing demand in developing countries due to an increase in disposable incomes and the rising demand for premium gin products.

Market participants may experience challenges due to the competition from other spirits categories and the regulations on alcoholic products. According to the report, “market vendors should focus more on the growth prospects in the fast-growing segments, while maintaining their positions in the slow-growing segments.”

The report also made mention of the increase of online spirit sales as another reason for gin market growth in the coming years.
