Pfanner benefits from its use of Tetra Pak while Teekanne feeds off its healthy image
Among the leading players, the most dynamic off-trade volume growth has been registered by Hermann Pfanner Getränke GmbH and Teekanne GmbH & Co KG in 2025. Pfanner benefited greatly from the fact that it has always relied primarily on Tetra Pak packaging for its RTD tea range, which is now seen as a welcome, deposit-free alternative for consumers.
