[USPRwire, Fri Oct 17 2014] South Africa experienced a tough year from a political standpoint in 2013. Labour unrest and striking resulted in problems with the harvesting of grapes. There was also the burning of vineyards by workers demanding higher wages, which had an impact on the overall grape harvest and curbed the growth potential of wine in the country.
Competitive Landscape
Distell Group led wine in South Africa with a volume share of 33% in 2013. Whilst this was a slight decline compared with the previous year’s share, the company’s actual volume sales enjoyed an increase. Whilst the company’s 4th Street brand of wine witnessed strong growth, this was partly offset by the decline of Oom Tas. On the whole, its share in wine declined. Distell is the national brand owner of 38 still wines and six sparkling wines in South Africa. Distell’s top three sellers in wine in South Africa are Paarle Perle, Autumn Harvest Crackling and Drostdy-Hof. JC Le Roux (sparkling wine) and Sedgwicks Old Brown Sherry also contributed to its strong overall share in wine.
Two fairly large crops and a poor grape harvest in Europe, as well as the weakening rand, resulted in driving bulk exports in 2013. Russia in particular is price-sensitive, and a good market to which to export. However, it is thought that bulk sales will slow over the forecast period, as production in Italy, Spain and France return to normal.
