This post considers what socialising will look like in a post-COVID-19 era, focusing on several key questions. A return to the “Roaring Twenties” in the beverages space or a continuing decimation of the on-trade? How has socialising changed (eg hometainment trends) and when will the on-trade recover? How will mood management impact this area? Overall, socialising is expected to become more dispersed as work habits shift, with consumers likely remaining cautious, even amidst a desire for normalcy.
