The International Vine and Wine Organisation (OIV) reinforced the importance of multilateral cooperation and adaptation to changing conditions, as global data on the wine sector in 2024 was released at its online Press Conference on 15 April 2025.
The OIV released statistics on production, consumption and trade from all producing and consuming nations (more than 180) to create a snapshot of the sector in the 2024 calendar year.
The data highlights the effects of climate change, shifting consumer preferences and geopolitical uncertainty upon the sector.
OIV Director General, John Barker, said that these impacts present a challenge of adaptation for the wine sector, but that successful adaptation would bring opportunities.
“Working together to develop solutions to climate change and making wine a beacon of sustainability; investing in research on new audiences so that we can see wine through their eyes; reinforcing our commitment to multilateralism and global trade: these are the elements that will lead the wine sector forward.
The OIV has a key role as the global reference for vine and wine uniting 51 countries to promote cooperation, harmonisation and knowledge sharing around the key challenges and opportunities for the sector.”
