The top three revenue contributing region segments are discussed below:

Kegerators market in Europe

In 2015, Europe occupied the maximum share of around 38% in the global kegerators market. The sales of kegerators in Europe are anticipated to increase slowly, both in terms of value and volume during the forecast period. The major markets in this region are the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Russia, and Italy.

According to Arushi Thakur, a lead analyst at Technavio, specializing in research on home, kitchen, and larger appliances, “The main driver for sale of kegerators is the increased consciousness of consumers regarding waste management and developed culture for beer and wine consumption. The off-trade consumption of beer in Europe is increasing as many consumers prefer to consume beer in the confines of their home. They started purchasing built-in and tabletop kegerators along with regular refrigerators due to their larger consumption of beer during the summer.”

Germany was the largest market in this region. The kegerator vendors are also performing predominantly in Europe.
