Forecasts to 2009 Illustrate how the Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages Market in Ireland is Set to Change

Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB) January 25, 2006

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c31343) has announced the addition of Fabs (Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages) in Ireland to their offering.

In 2004, alcoholic drinks in Ireland suffered a number of major blows that began to seriously affect sales. The smoking ban of 2004, the slowdown in the Irish economy in 2002, the growing realisation of the social effects of alcohol abuse and binge drinking, and the changes in excise duties all conspired to produce an increasingly competitive market environment.

This Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages (FABs) in Ireland report offers a comprehensive guide to the size and shape of the market at a national level. It provides the latest retail sales data (1999-2004), allowing you to identify the sectors driving growth. It identifies the leading companies, the leading brands and offers strategic analysis of key factors influencing the market – be they legislative, distribution or pricing issues. Forecasts to 2009 illustrate how the market is set to change.

Product coverage includes wine-based FABs and spirit-based FABs. Data coverage includes market sizes (historic and forecasts), company shares and brand shares
