Total volume sales of alcoholic drinks in China turned to decline in 2022, as although the off-trade experienced low single-digit volume growth, the on-trade experienced a double-digit volume decline due to the far-reaching consequences of the COVID-19 lockdowns. Consumption had already diminished in 2020 due to the first wave of COVID-19, but after a small rebound in 2021, consumption was again hindered by the restrictions imposed on the operating hours of catering establishments in 2022.
