Due to rising inflation and economic uncertainty in Latvia, off-trade volume sales of soft drinks declined in 2023. With rising prices, disposable incomes were reduced, leading many to adapt their buying habits, reducing purchases of non-essential items. This led to an overall off-trade volume decline for soft drinks, considered unessential by many. Despite lower prices, the deepest decline was noted in concentrates, which are suffering from the rising health and wellness trend.
