Executive summary

Soft drink sales decrease

Despite a relatively warm summer, soft drinks volume sales declined by 2% in 2008 – a deterioration upon the review period CAGR of -1%. Several soft drinks categories have seen sales suffer due to increasing consumer health awareness (eg carbonates) and rising environmental concerns (eg bottled water).

Decline in Sales of Low Calorie Brands

For the first time in several years, low calorie carbonate sales decreased in 2008, with consumers becoming increasingly concerned over the use of artificial sweeteners, additives, and preservatives. Bottled water sales have also been hit by increasing consumer environmental awareness. For example, a media campaign which focused on the negative aspects of water bottle transportation was launched in 2007.

Coca-Cola Drycker Sverige leads sales

Coca-Cola Drycker Sverige currently leads soft drinks sales in Sweden and the company is present within all important areas. When a giant like Coca-Cola enters a new segment it usually results in strong growth within the category as a whole. The latest high profile launch by the company was for its Powerade brand. Carlsberg Sverige ranked second in 2008. The company has a similar product range to Coca-Cola and also has the Swedish manufacturing license for Pepsi. Third placed Spendrups Bryggeri also operates within the same areas as its two main competitors.

Store-based retailers dominate sales

Store-based retailing accounted for over 99% of off-trade volume sales in 2008 – a percentage which remained constant throughout the review period. Grocery retailers dominate sales, with a 2008 retail volume share of 97% - the majority of which was accounted for by supermarkets/hypermarkets. Non-grocery retailers recorded slow but steady growth over the review period, with variety stores, which offer a wide range of non-food and food products, performing particularly well.

Projected decline in volume sales over forecast period

Soft drinks has projected forecast period growth of -1% in volume terms but +3% in retail value terms over the forecast period. This volume decline will be driven by increasing consumer health awareness and a shift away from products containing artificial additives. Sales will also be negatively affected by the weaker Swedish economy over the forecast period.
