Minimum Price on Beer – How will you be impacted?

The government, which is soon to publish its alcohol strategy, has agreed to set a minimum price on alcohol, indicated at around 40p per unit, in all supermarkets. We have reviewed the lines that are currently sold to understand how pricing in Beer, Lager and Cider may be affected by this change.

Do branded products have much to worry about?
As of 12th April, 8% of products in the category currently have a base price (non-promoted) below 40p per unit, over one-third of them own label. The chart below highlights the average price (in pence) per unit in Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury’s and Waitrose for all products within a number of key brands.
