Opening Thoughts: May 23, 2024

May 23, 2024
Looking for in-depth sales results and other statistics across the US non-alcoholic beverage industry for 2023? The Beverage Digest data team has just released the 29th Edition of the our annual Fact Book. These performance results differ from the quarterly data published in BD’s newsletter because they include sales of packaged and fountain drinks across all channels, including retail stores and foodservice outlets. This is some of the best data you can get for the price.

Today’s special issue is a top-level view of that annual all-channel Fact Book report. The following pages cover major beverage companies, categories, trademarks, and brands. It’s your quick reference guide to how the biggest players are performing in both liquid refreshment beverages and carbonated soft drinks, and it provides a snapshot of the intense competition in the US beverage business.

For much more detail into the numbers, you’ll want to purchase the full Fact Book, available HERE. This deep report covers CSDs, packaged water, sports drinks, energy drinks, juice, and ready-to-drink coffee, and tea. It includes charts and tables breaking down last year’s results and trends. A comprehensive set of “Datasheets” in Excel format provides brand level detail, grouped by company and category.

This Fact Book and all-channel data is based on Beverage Digest’s evaluation, analysis, and estimates of information obtained both publicly and from confidential sources. The team has organized and maintains the data within a relational database. Our annual industry estimates are fine-tuned as we develop new information.

For nearly three decades, Beverage Digest’s Fact Book has become a trusted tool for the industry, and we are proud to bring you the following overview...
