COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Quala maintains its strong lead as the main player in concentrates
Quala Ecuador SA maintains its strong lead as the main player in concentrates, offering the top two brands — JugosYá and SunTea. The player’s success comes from its robust financial resources, continuous flavour innovations, and extensive distribution across both modern and traditional channels.
Sumesa returns to strength after a period of financial and administrative challenges
Sumesa SA, the owner of the classic Fresco Solo brand, is seeing the strongest company growth in concentrates. However, this growth is less about new market development and more a recovery from a significant contraction in previous years due to financial and administrative challenges.
