With COVID-19 lockdowns normalising home delivery of everything from fast food to aspirin, brewers are tapping into a lucrative new sales format – delivering cold beer on demand to consumers still gathering at home with friends even as bars reopen.

In Mexico, its rival Heineken last year launched delivery service GLUP, also focused on direct-to-consumer cold beer. Sales on AB InBev’s e-commerce platforms, dominated by Ze Delivery, rose 62% in 2021 to more than $500 million globally. “Just the value of that will justify all the investments we make in direct-to-consumer by themselves,” said Doukeris.Some smaller craft brewers aside, beer has been late toe-commerce compared with wine and spirits, which currently account for 40% and 42% of the online alcohol market respectively against an 18% share for beer, cider, and ready-to-drink beverages combined, according to IWSR drinks market analysis.

“We know that for the majority of categories, they start with a very small penetration and there is a kind of tipping point when the volume of e-commerce goes to more than 3 to 4%,then accelerates very, very fast,” he said. Brazil has broken that barrier.
