According to the latest analysis by FMI, the market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period from 2023 to 2033.

Market Dynamics

Rum, with its natural flavors and high alcohol content, continues to enjoy popularity across the globe. The growing number of restaurants and bars serving unique cocktails has further fueled the demand for rum. Nations in South Asia and Latin America, where rum production and consumption are high, play a crucial role in the market’s expansion.

However, the market has rebounded strongly, supported by the rising per capita income and a cultural shift towards increased alcohol consumption in regions like Asia Pacific.
