-Despite the growing number of small independent manufacturer's within the UK marketplace the top five UK soft drinks companies all witnessed relative market share increases in 2007, accounting for 53% of volume.

Executive Summary:
The aim of this report is to examine developments and trends in the UK Soft Drinks industry throughout 2007. In undertaking its research, Zenith International depends upon the goodwill and co-operation of firms in the marketplace to provide accurate figures on their activities and thus the market overall. During Zenith's annual research into the UK soft drinks industry, over 250 soft drinks producers are regularly contacted. This includes larger branded operators, retailer own label specialists, contract packers and a significant number of smaller independent companies.
Based on individual producer volumes for the year - market, sector and segment totals are calculated from the 'bottom up'. At a sector and segment level, adjustments are then made for any double counting of contract and licensed bottling. Estimates for unauthorised soft drink imports sold through the 'grey market' are also included. This is more pronounced in categories such as energy drinks rather than dilute to taste drinks, for example.
A complete picture of the UK soft drinks market across all sales channels is produced, through Zenith's extensive study of the largest soft drinks companies, alongside small to medium sized operators and own label specialists. The market figures presented therefore encompass all aspects of the market including: take home, impulse and on premise; water cooler volumes for the office; home dispense carbonated soft drinks; and pump
dispense carbonates in the licensed trade.
To this end, a considerable amount of time and effort is spent contacting industry players and striving to analyse the complexities of the UK soft drinks arena. Zenith would like to express its sincere gratitude to the entire UK soft drinks industry for its continued help and support during the research process.
