The soft drinks market: a growing trend
As a brand, are you looking to enter the soft drinks market or maintain your position by renewing your product range? Metarom, specialist in the manufacture of flavors for beverages and and food products, offers innovative flavoring solutions that meet the needs of the soft drinks market.
Why position yourself in the soft drinks market?
The soft drinks market has grown exponentially in recent years. Consumers increasingly concerned about their health and well-being are turning to these alcohol-free alternatives.
So much so, that the soft drinks market has become one of the most dynamic in the food industry. In France, it consists mainly of carbonated and non-carbonated beverages, including colas, sodas, lemonades, iced teas and flavored waters.
While the soft drinks market includes sweetened beverages, the demand for more natural, less sweetened beverages is growing, reflecting a trend towards healthier eating. This trend can be a real opportunity for manufacturers wishing to diversify their offering by capitalizing on flavors for soft drinks.
