In 2023, the UK imported an estimated volume of gin and geneva of approximately 6.5 million kilograms. Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase in imports, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of around 4.4% per year. From 2024 to 2025, there is a projected year-on-year growth of 4.6%, followed by increases of roughly 4.3%, 4.0%, and 3.8% annually through 2028. This upward trend reflects sustainable growth in gin and geneva demand in the UK.
Future trends to watch for:
- Emerging market preferences for craft and premium gin which could influence import levels.
- Regulatory changes or trade agreements post-Brexit affecting the supply chain dynamics.
- The impact of shifting consumer behavior towards local gin distilleries.
