Impact of COVID-19 on Cocktail Syrup Market Growth

This severely affected the demand for cocktail syrups as people predominantly consumed cocktails at food service places. The decline in "out-of-home" consumption of cocktails amid lockdowns diminished the sales of cocktail syrups. However, as people started consuming cocktails at home during lockdowns, it provided some support to the market. With vaccination programs gaining pace in 2021, gradual lifting of restrictions has enabled reopening of food service places. This has boosted the consumption of cocktails and subsequent demand for cocktail syrups from 2022 onwards. Nevertheless, threat of new virus variants still looms large and continued uncertainty around the pandemic may impact the recovery of the market. The market players need to focus on innovation, new product launches and strengthening e-commerce channels to aid the market growth in the post-COVID period.
