Positive sales supported by steady demand for a variety of soft drinks
Off-trade RTD volume sales of soft drinks are seeing small growth in Finland in 2025, with volume growth up compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, value sales are also maintaining positive growth, supported by high unit prices overall. The main challenge faced by soft drinks is that some categories are facing maturity and thus seeing lower scope for further growth. Overall, however, consumer demand for thirst-quenching, refreshing, indulgent, functional, and convenient soft drinks is boosting demand. New product developments are also attracting consumers, with a strong focus on soft drinks with health and wellness benefits, alongside those featuring new flavour experiences.
