Market Overview

Any flavored water beverage with added sweetness and usually some carbonation qualifies as a soft drink. Artificial or natural flavors can be utilized. Soft drinks are free of alcohol and are sweet, bubbly, and pleasant. They are formed of carbonated beverages and syrup (sugar and extracts from plants or fruits). Fruit juice, high-fructose corn syrup, sugar, sugar substitutes, or whatever combination of the above could be used as the sweeteners. In addition to other components, soft drinks can additionally contain artificial colors, preservatives, and caffeine. French customers are choosing non-alcoholic drinks due to their growing health consciousness.  Soft drink consumption has increased generally as a result of this health-conscious mindset, but there is also a developing market for goods that are low in sugar or have extra vitamins and minerals.

Driving Factors

Among the markets experiencing the highest growth in the global boom of alcohol-free drinks is France. There has been a shift in the country's large alcohol business with the influx of companies producing alcohol-free wines, beers, cocktails, and spirits. Additionally, France consumed 1.5 billion liters of fruit juice last year, or 23 liters per person annually, or one glass two to three times a week. Unlike in other nations, the French prefer "pure juice," which is fruit that has been pasteurized and squeezed. With 56% of sales, it is currently the most popular drink in France, increasing 10% in just five years. Juice that has been preserved in its home country and then rehydrated in France is called concentrated juice; bottles of pure juice cost roughly €2.40, or €1. The French soft drink market is driven by the trend of French consumers turning more and more towards soft drinks, as seen by the facts and statements presented.

Restraining Factors

Customers who are concerned about their health are looking for alternatives that have less sugar, like naturally sweetened, low-sugar, and sugar-free beverages. Soft drink producers face a problem as a result of this shift in customer behavior since they must adjust to changing tastes and provide healthier substitutes to keep market share.
