The Mexican Craft Beer Market Report 2013
Report Highlights:
Mexico is the world’s sixth-largest beer producer and sixth-largest beer consumer. Mexico’s beer industry is dominated by two major companies, Grupo Modelo and FEMSA (Cerveceria Cuauhtemoc Moctezuma) now property of the Dutch company, Heineken. Grupo Modelo continues to dominate the Mexican beer market with 57 market share, followed by Heineken Mexico with 41 percent market share. Craft beers are a burgeoning trend in Mexico and are gaining momentum in large urban areas of Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Queretaro. Even though imported beer volumes still represent a small share of the market, there is a growing export opportunity for U.S. exporters of craft beer and beer ingredients in Mexico.
