In 2023, the sector had an actual employment figure of approximately 8.61 thousand employees. From 2024, projections indicate an annual increase, reaching 8.65 thousand employees by 2028. The year-on-year growth rate is consistently minor, with almost negligible change, evidencing a stable market environment. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is also low due to the industry's maturity and limited expansion capacity.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of regulatory changes on alcohol production, shifts in consumer preferences towards craft and premium spirits, and the influence of sustainability practices on operational strategies and employment requirements.
