Ι understand that. Nick, but the question is, 'above segment growth' NOT '"prestige and above segment growth'. The latter refers, by me, to 'prestige whiskies and 'better' spirits, which might refer to, either whiskies, or even brandy or ouzo, for that matter.
'above segment' might be what is called 'Premium' products. I do not think that there is a classification of ' above prestige', as Dave Bindon suggests. I beg to disagree with you, on this one, Dave.
If, Ioanna wants, 'prestige and above segment growth' she should ask this!!!

Have a look at this Reuters news item where the "prestige and above segment" appears in brackets and is also explained.

Στη φράση δεν αναφέρεται 'ο τομέας'. Αυτό, σίγουρα, θα το βάλει ο/η ερωτήσας.
Note:- The whole phrase is written in bad English, anyway. More correctly it should have been written as follows, 'In India, Net Sales were up 8%, with the prestige segment growing 12%.....'
I understand this to read that, ALL the Sales were up 8%, and 'in particular, INDIVIDUALLY(but included in the 8%) the prestige segment growth, in it's own group, has grown TO 12%, or, perhaps BY 12%. To me, the 12% growth is ambiguous!!!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "I was completely unaware of this term, and indeed my translation had to do with spirits too, so thank you. My bad for not putting it all together, it I had no idea such thing exists (nor did it come up on my google search) Ευχαριστώ πολυ"

ανάπτυξη του παραπάνω τομέα/ προγράμματος

This might refer to something above in the text and might not be very well phrased, maybe some context would help.
Other than that the only thing that comes to mind regarding the meaning of "segment" is TV series & programmes.
