A recently published report by the Euromonitor indicates that the world’s biggest beer market in terms of volume sales, china, will overtake the United States in terms of value sale by 2017.
China, a nominally socialist country, is poised to become the world’s biggest economy by GDP within the next decade.
“As the legal drinking age population is expected to grow faster in China than in the USA over 2013–2018 in absolute terms, brewers will be capturing prospective demand that has been dormant for years,” said Amin Alkhatib, a drinks analyst at Euromonitor.
