Britvic sales gain as summer of '16 proves a winner

Thursday 08 Dec 2016 Author: William Cain

A warm summer helped Britvic (BVIC) sell 1.3bn litres of fizzy drinks in the UK during the year to 25 September 2016.

Sales of Pepsi, which Britvic distributes in the UK, 7UP and Tango’s best year in more than a decade helped volumes gain around 4.8%.

Worldwide, and including sales of still drinks including Robinsons cordial, Britvic sold 2.3bn litres in the year, up 12.3% year-over-year.

Robinsons struggled because political pressure around higher sugar content drinks meant a popular ‘added sugar’ line of the brand was removed. (WC)
