The production of fermented beverages in Argentina is forecasted to decline sharply over the next five years. In 2023, the production stood at 2.12 thousand metric tons. However, projections indicate a decrease to 1.75 thousand metric tons in 2024, then dropping further to 1.34, 0.95, 0.56, and eventually 0.18 thousand metric tons by 2028. This marks a significant year-on-year decrease of 20% from 2024 to 2025, followed by 29.1% in 2026, 41.1% in 2027, and an overall reduction of 67.8% by 2028.
