Food, Beverage & Tobacco Wholesaling in Ireland

Food, beverage and tobacco wholesalers have faced fluctuations in consumer and business spending patterns following the public health measures enforced to tackle COVID-19, as well as the cost-of-living crisis. Food-service operators are a key market for many industry operators; the multiple lockdown periods caused demand from these businesses to nosedive. Convenience stores and supermarkets absorbed some leftover demand, though it wasn't enough to prevent an industry-wide revenue contraction in 2020. The lifting of lockdown restrictions supported a solid recovery in revenue over 2021.

Operators in this industry wholesale all food, beverage and tobacco products. Wholesalers do not perform additional tasks beyond repackaging, instead focusing on storage and distribution.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
