COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Ristora leads powder concentrates, while traditional brand Fabbri sees share decline
Prontofoods Srl maintained its leadership in concentrates in Italy in off-trade RTD volume terms in 2025, largely owing to the strong performance of its Ristora brand within powder concentrates. The company's instant tea range, featuring popular flavours such as lemon, peach, blueberry and berries, and green tea, proved to be a significant sales driver, maintaining its leading position and share.
waterdrop Microdrink GmbH reshapes the concentrates landscape
waterdrop Microdrink GmbH was by far the most dynamic company within concentrates in Italy in 2025. Following the successful launch of its waterdrop Microdrinks in 2024, the company further bolstered its presence with the introduction of waterdrop Microenergy to the Italian market in 2025.
