In this piece, we will take a look at the 25 largest beverage companies in the world in 2023. For more companies, head on over to 5 Largest Beverage Companies in the Word in 2023.
These days, the biggest worry on everyone's mind is a potential recession in America. The economic turmoil that has been ravaging the world over the past couple of years has nearly destroyed the finances of developing countries and put advanced economies under strain as well. Take the example of China, where millions of fresh graduates with advanced degrees are struggling to find a job as the economy slowly starts after shutting down during the pandemic.
At the same time, in the U.S. there is a growing worry of a potential default as the economy slows down in the wake of the Federal Reserve's rapid interest rate hikes to combat inflation. While members of the House were quick to pass a Republican sponsored bill in late April 2023 by voting two thirds to suspend normal rules, there are concerns that a showdown in Senate could very well place the U.S. on a default trajectory.
But why bring up macroeconomics in a post about the biggest beverage companies in the world? Well, this is because the beverages sector is often quite resilient in a recessionary environment. Of course, the key word to note here is recession 'resistant' and not recession 'proof', since no industry is truly and absolutely immune to a drop in incomes and a slowdown in spending. Looking at what the professionals are saying, a study from Morningstar provides some important insights on this topic.
In the aftermath of the 2008 economic crisis, Morningstar reported that the beverage industry was undervalued with an average value to fair price estimate of 0.88. It also highlighted that as spending fell, consumers became more price conscious which in turn saw the alcoholic beverages offered by Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (NYSE:BUD) grow their sales. Additionally, other large companies such as Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO) and Brown-Forman Corporation (NYSE:BF-B) were cash flow healthy. At the same time, brand loyalty also helped the beverage firms stay afloat, as Morningstar points out that brands such as Diageo's Johnnie Walker endured the recession well as customers continue to drink the spirit even as they canceled vacations.
As a whole though, the beverages industry is made of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic products. In fact, the top five of the 16 Most Valuable Beverage Brands in the World are all non-alcoholic brands, and some of the biggest companies in the world such as The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) also make and sell non-alcoholic drinks. Naturally, since the current economic turmoil has been in place for over a year now, it's relevant to take a look at how well these companies are performing. On this front, Coca-Cola has recovered its revenue drop since the coronavirus pandemic and has grown top line sales since 2020. In fact, last year's inflationary wave also helped the beverage company, since it grew its revenue to $43 billion in 2022 from the $38.6 billion that it had raked in the previous year.
Taking a look at the beverage industry as a whole, a research report from The Business Research Company estimates that the industry was worth $3.5 trillion last year, and despite the expected global slowdown, will grow to $3.7 trillion by the end of this year to mark a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7%. It adds that from 2023 until 2027, the growth will decelerate a bit to sit at 5.4%, which will lead to a final value of $4.6 trillion for the global beverage market by the end of the forecast time period.
Since it is one of the, if not the, biggest beverage companies in the world, a brief look at Coca-Cola's latest earnings call provides valuable details for what to expect from the beverages market. During the event, executives shared:
Firstly, as John said, we feel confident about our outlook to drive the year [2023] from the top line. Let me connect that perhaps starting to 2022. As we commented, we saw steady volume growth through the year, including the fourth quarter. I know we reported a headline number of minus one. But if you accommodate the suspension of Russia and the COVID restrictions in China and take a three-year CAGR of volume growth, you see a pretty constant growth momentum through the year. And we would also comment that, that growth momentum has continued into the beginning of inflation. So we see strong underlying volume momentum or ongoing volume momentum that we have been able to achieve by our focus on the marketing innovation, the RGM and the execution to accommodate the need for affordability and premiumization in the phase inflation.
And as John commented, we do see both inflation moderating as we go through 2023 and of course, our own pricing PMO beginning to moderate as we go through ’23 in part because, the input costs inflation is moderating, but also because we begin to cycle some of the price increases from 2022. And what that’s likely to net out as obviously, we’ve given a seven to eight for the full year. And what we’re likely to see is the beginning of the Q1, we’re likely to see revenue growth more close to what — the sort of levels we were achieving coming out of last year. And that then logically, the organic growth rate moderates as we get towards the end of the year, looking to close out on a more normalized level of revenue growth. And then when you average that out, you get to the seven to eight.se de
