Production of 203.18 million litres in 2023
In the Graph’Agri 2025 table covering other beverages, Agreste reports production of syrups for consumption of 2.031832 million hectolitres in 2023, equivalent to 203.1832 million litres. The 2023 figure is provisional.
The indicator measures French production of syrups for consumption. It represents neither market revenue nor household purchases. It must therefore not be used alone to measure consumption or supermarket sales.
Moderate change over the comparable period
Between 2012 and 2023, production rose from 1.897965 to 2.031832 million hectolitres. The calculation (final value / initial value - 1) × 100 gives an increase of approximately 7.05% over the entire period. This is not an annual growth rate.
The 2023 level is approximately 0.36% below 2022, when production reached 2.039216 million hectolitres. These differences describe the published series; they do not, by themselves, explain the causes.
Production trends
The series shows French production of syrups for consumption from 2012 onwards. The 2023 value is provisional. The chart uses a narrowed axis range to make changes easier to read.
Why start the chart in 2012?
The table note identifies a change in measurement: the series covers sales before 2012, then production. We therefore use 2012–2023 to present a consistent production series.
The values and their conversion into litres are shown below. The final data point retains its provisional status. One million hectolitres equals 100 million litres.

What else is needed to analyse the market
Market analysis requires other dimensions: foreign trade, distribution channels, prices, purchasing habits and brand positioning. Production data provides a reference point for supply; it does not replace these complementary analyses.
Further questions therefore concern the scope of products, customers and channels studied. Our food and agrifood industry studies help place this market among beverages and food products.
