Alcoholic drinks witnessed steeper volume sales decline in 2023 as the high costs of living in Romania encouraged consumers to make cutbacks on these beverages. The price of food continued to rise in line with the stubbornly high inflation rate, exacerbated by high energy costs (gas and electricity) that put additional pressure on household budgets. Excise duty on alcoholic drinks began to rise in 2023 causing further price growth in alcoholic drinks.
