Tax increases placed upward pressure on prices in 2024, but an uptick in economic activity and the ongoing expansion of the affluent urban middle-class continued to underpin sales growth. Investment in infrastructure has also led to improvements in the distribution of soft drinks.
Soft drinks in 2024: The big picture
The Tanzanian soft drinks market has been experiencing steady growth becoming one of the most vibrant markets in East Africa. Spurred on by demand from its large population, the industry has attracted local and international companies fighting for share.
Country background
Soft drinks are widely popular in Tanzania, as it is common to offer such beverages to guests and even customers in shops. Consumers drink soft drinks with lunch and dinner at home, as well as in restaurants and during the afternoon with a snack.
Socioeconomic trends
An increase in import tariffs and rising production costs put pressure on prices of soft drinks in 2024 which served to limit stronger volume growth. Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) increased business taxes on traders while it also moved to close some businesses which had failed to pay their taxes.
Logistics/infrastructure
Tanzania’s road network has improved significantly over the past decade, with most main cities now accessible by modern roads. However, many rural areas are still only accessible via dirt roads, which are unusable during the rainy season.
What next for soft drinks?
Sales of soft drinks are expected to see strong growth in retail volume terms over the forecast period. The main drivers of demand for soft drinks will likely be population expansion, urbanisation, an anticipated post-pandemic economic rebound and widening distribution.
