Cyprus Beer Exports Slide 24.2% In June 2025 Amid Market Shifts

Industry Overview And Key Figures

Data from the Statistical Service, Cyprus (Cystat), reveals a significant decline in beer exports from local factories in June 2025. Exports dropped to 245,087 litres, representing a 24.2% decrease from 323,278 litres recorded in June 2024. In contrast, domestic consumption experienced a modest increase of 1.5%, reaching 4,601,840 litres. These trends contributed to an overall slight contraction in total beer deliveries, which fell by 0.2% year on year to 4,846,927 litres.

Comparative Analysis With The Previous Month

May 2025 presented a markedly different scenario. During that month, beer exports surged by 83.9% to 381,641 litres, while domestic consumption fell by 8% to 4,115,967 litres. The net effect was a 4% year-over-year decrease in total deliveries, with figures amounting to 4,497,608 litres in May 2025. This stark contrast underscores a volatile market dynamic that warrants close attention from industry stakeholders.

EU Moderates Emissions While Sustaining Economic Momentum

by THEFUTURE.TEAM

November 15, 2025

The European Union witnessed a modest decline in greenhouse gas emissions in the second quarter of 2025, as reported by Eurostat. Emissions across the EU registered at 772 million tonnes of CO₂-equivalents, marking a 0.4 percent reduction from 775 million tonnes in the same period of 2024. Concurrently, the EU’s gross domestic product rose by 1.3 percent, reinforcing the ongoing decoupling between economic growth and environmental impact.

Sector-By-Sector Performance

Within the broader statistics on emissions by economic activity, the energy sector—specifically electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply—experienced the most significant drop, declining by 2.9 percent. In comparison, the manufacturing sector and transportation and storage both achieved a 0.4 percent reduction. However, household emissions bucked the trend, increasing by 1.0 percent over the same period.

National Highlights And Notable Exceptions

Among EU member states, 12 reported a reduction in emissions, while 14 saw increases, and Estonia’s figures remained static. Notably, Slovenia, the Netherlands, and Finland recorded the most pronounced declines at 8.6 percent, 5.9 percent, and 4.2 percent respectively. Of the 12 countries reducing emissions, three—Finland, Germany, and Luxembourg—also experienced a contraction in GDP growth.

Dual Achievement: Environmental And Economic Goals

In an encouraging development, nine member states, including Cyprus, managed to lower their emissions while maintaining economic expansion. This dual achievement—reducing environmental impact while fostering economic activity—is a trend that has increasingly influenced EU climate policies. Other nations that successfully balanced these outcomes include Austria, Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Romania, Slovenia, and Sweden.

Conclusion

As the EU continues to navigate its climate commitments, these quarterly insights underscore a gradual yet significant shift toward balancing emissions reductions with robust economic growth. The evolving landscape highlights the critical need for sustainable strategies that not only mitigate environmental risks but also invigorate economic resilience.
