Soft drink sales are impacted by weather, price rises, and changing consumer preferences
Demand for soft drinks in Estonia has been affected by a cold summer and cautious consumer spending, amid continuing economic uncertainty. Shifts towards low-sugar and added-value beverages, including energy and functional drinks, are reshaping consumption preferences. Private label offerings remain limited in carbonates and energy drinks but have a stronger presence in juice and economy bottled water. Coca-Cola HBC Eesti AS remains the leading player, with a strong presence across key categories. During the forecast period, maturity, price sensitivity, and weather conditions will continue to impact sales.
