Facts about the US wine industry
The wine industry in the US is large and fragmented, with new, regional wineries continuing to enter the industry. Over the five years to 2020, the industry has experienced fairly consistent growth. As the United States has become an increasingly prominent producer and exporter of quality wines, the industry has established itself as a key player in the global wine market.
Over the five years to 2025, the industry is forecast to experience a slight slowdown in revenue growth as the economy rebounds from setbacks incurred amid the coronavirus pandemic and consumers begin diversifying their alcoholic beverage consumption. While growth is expected to be slightly slower than during the previous five-year period, operators are expected to benefit from projected increases in consumer confidence and per capita expenditure on alcohol. Still, persistent detrimental growing conditions are expected to place downward pressure on profit margins, as operators struggle to maintain stable input costs. Thus, over the next five years, revenue is forecast to rise an annualized 3.0% to $30.0 billion.
