Carbonates is expected to continue to decline in volume terms, slowly but steadily, over the course of the forecast period. Indeed, the increasing demand for healthier and more sustainable soft drinks will drive consumers away from carbonates to bring them to categories such as concentrates, juice drinks, or functional drinks.
While the health and wellness trends will only strengthen over the forecast period, it is expected that the Belgian population will continue to switch to reduced sugar carbonates versus regular carbonates. Leading brands will inevitably drive the trends towards lower sugar options and, indeed, all notable efforts in innovation are focused on healthier variant developments within carbonates.
Another threat to carbonates comes in the form of soda machines, which have a growing appeal due to their sustainable positioning. Indeed, with ongoing global hikes in inflation and the cost of food and beverages, it is expected that consumers may turn away from carbonates completely and instead make their own versions at home with tap water, liquid concentrates, and soda machines.
