Global Soft Drink and Bottled Water Manufacturing Industry Market Research Report Now Available from IBISWorld

Posted by Bill under Uncategorized

The Global Soft Drink & Bottled Water Manufacturing industry, which encompasses the manufacturing of carbonated soft drinks, bottled water and functional drinks, recorded solid revenue growth before 2009, underpinned by strong volume growth in emerging markets and rising demand for bottled water and other non-carbonated products in more mature markets. This occurred despite the industry's major product, carbonated soft drinks, gradually losing market share as consumers shifted toward healthier beverages. Industry revenue contracted in 2009 as the global economic downturn constrained demand across most markets. The industry is forecast to grow moderately in 2012, with emerging markets providing the major impetus for growth as developed markets continue to drag on growth. However, the industry is expected to strengthen over the next five years. While developed markets will take time to recover, consumer trends should support sales of industry products, including low-sugar carbonated beverages, premium non-carbonated beverages and sports and energy drinks. For these reasons, industry research firm IBISWorld has added a report on the Global Soft Drink and Bottled Water Manufacturing industry to its growing industry report collection.
