In the first nine months of 2024, the Russian Federation experienced a notable increase in the production of alcoholic beverages, with cider, perry, and mead production rising by 32.1% to 10.2 million decalitres. Beer and beer drinks also saw growth, with a 10.6% increase to 692.3 million decalitres, including a 9.8% rise in beer production to 603.7 million decalitres and a 16.6% increase in beer drinks to 88.6 million decalitres. This growth is largely attributed to the implementation of a producer register managed by Rosalkogoltobakkontrol, which began on September 1, 2023, to improve industry oversight.
