In 2024, Ukrainians spent UAH 7 billion more on beer than in 2023. The Eurasian Beer Group increased its revenue by 932% per year. This is evidenced by data from the analytical platform VKURSI.

It is noted that such growth indicates a gradual recovery of consumer demand, the adaptation of enterprises to the difficult economic environment, and partial stabilization of the domestic market.

The industry's total revenue for the year increased by 17.5% and amounted to UAH 46.3 billion, and total profit remained almost unchanged since 2023 and reached UAH 2.5 billion. Thus, enterprises were able to stabilize their activities and ensure profitable work in wartime conditions.

At the same time, only two companies received a profit of over 1 billion UAH, three companies – from 100 million UAH, and another ten – from 10 to 100 million UAH.
