Executive summary

Higher value growth for soft drinks than volume growth

Although both value and volume sales increased in soft drinks in 2007, it was value sales which showed the highest growth. Volume sales increased, but were held back by the disappointing summer of 2007. The excellent summer the previous year had boosted volume sales, and it was a remarkable achievement that despite the weather, the market as a whole did not see a volume decline. Value performance was slightly better than volume, however, as many companies re-launched their soft drinks packaging in 2006 and 2007. This was because they wanted to improve value sales after the dramatic price war. Packaging re-launches always help to disguise price increases.

Carbonates affected by the bad summer

The bad summer was a major influence on the development of carbonates in 2007. Whilst the year before the warm weather and the World Cup helped to boost sales, 2007 was more disappointing. The summer was wet, with very few periods of very warm weather, and there were no major events such as football championships to boost sales. This had a negative influence on soft drinks in general and carbonates in particular. Carbonates sales are usually boosted by warm weather, and therefore suffered the consequence of the mediocre summer.

Fruit/vegetable juice continues to show high growth

2007 was another great year for fruit/vegetable juice. Both volume and value sales saw impressive growth rates, although the growth was not as high as the previous year. The poor summer also limited growth in fruit/vegetable juice, although this sector is not nearly as dependent on hot weather as, for instance, carbonates. Thirst-quenching is an important and relevant benefit for categories such as nectars and juice drinks, but healthy living is certainly as important. Health issues have recently become very important to drinks in general, and fruit/vegetable juice drinks have an excellent reputation when it comes to this.

Positive trend for bottled water

The bad summer in the Netherlands definitely had an impact on bottled water. The Dutch buy most of their bottled water in the summer, as the tradition of having a bottle of water on the table at lunch and supper is not something with which most Dutch consumers are familiar. This means that most water is bought during hot summers when they want to quench their thirst when on the go, or if they want a bottle to chill in the fridge. If the weather is not as good, Dutch tap water is of such good quality (and with no chloride) that it is an excellent alternative to bottled water.

More potential for growth in the forecast period

The outlook for soft drinks as a whole is positive, as the improved economic and retail conditions will help market performance to improve. Soft drinks is a mature market, however, and in terms of volume sales the growth rates will be slightly lower than in the review period. The good news is that in general there will be more room for added value products and premium brands, which will boost sales values. This means that value growth over the next five years will be higher than over the review period. This is remarkable, considering the slowdown in volume development.
