Off-trade RTD volume sales of concentrates in Germany rose in 2025, albeit significantly slower than in the previous years of the review period. Moreover, growth was due solely to the liquid format, with powder concentrates remaining on a downward trajectory in terms of off-trade RTD volume sales. Some formats performed well, such as functional syrups, while mixology was a key driver. In 2025, many consumers looked for added value via functionality, variety and sustainability.
