Making Sense Of 2 Series At Once
With 2 series on one chart, the shape that matters is how the ranking shifts over time, not just where each line starts or ends.
Do not confuse "biggest" with "fastest-growing" — they are frequently different series on a chart like this one, and the gap between them can close faster than the current ranking suggests.
The most practical way to read this is relative: set the Global Beer market figures beside other regions or segments of the same market to see where growth is concentrated.
The numbers here come from a market sizing model: historical revenue estimates up to the 2018 base year, then forecasts through 2030 using growth-rate assumptions for each segment. The underlying report explains the methodology in detail.
