This organic soft drinks research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global organic soft drinks market will grow from $5.53 billion in 2022 to $5.82 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%.

Consumers are increasingly shifting towards the consumption of functional beverages that contain ingredients to address these specific health issues. According to Packaging Strategies journal, a major change in the beverage industry is moving toward functional beverages as consumers strive to improve their health. Additionally, the rise of clean-label, organic, and non-GMO products is impacting the buying behaviours of consumers. Therefore, consumer preferences for functional drinks over carbonated drinks and fruit juices are projected to drive the demand for functional beverages over the next few years. The wide availability of cheaper substitutes such as green tea, coffee, and fresh juice is hindering the growth of the functional beverage market.

For instance, dry beverage mixes, which offer functionality, are cost-effective and have low transportation costs. The ingredients in dry beverage mixes provide high nutrients, replacing the need for functional beverages with low costs. The availability of cheaper substitutes thereby restrains the growth of the market. The manufacturing of low-calorie natural sweeteners and the use of natural colors and ingredients are promoting the growth of functional beverages. Major players dealing in the industry are adopting various strategies in order to meet consumer requirements. For instance, in April 2021, Manus Bio, Inc., a US-based company operating in natural ingredients, announced the launch of NutraSweet Natural, a plant-based sweetener with zero calories. NutraSweet Natural is produced by isolating the sweetest and purest parts of the stevia leaf, which are incorporated into a proprietary blend to create the exact taste of sugar without the calories while minimizing its environmental footprint.

The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term.

The US economy is expected to register stable growth during the forecast period. Additionally, emerging markets are expected to continue to grow slightly faster than developed markets in the forecast period. Greater economic growth is likely to drive public and private investments, joint ventures, and foreign direct investments in the end-user markets, thereby driving the market during the forecast period. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the food and beverage stores market in 2020 as supply chains were disrupted due to trade restrictions and consumption declined due to lockdowns imposed by governments globally.

The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and has spread globally, including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in the manufacture and trade of non-essential goods and an overall decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lock down" and the outbreak having a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the food and beverage stores market will recover from the shock over the forecast period as it is a "black swan" event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. Self-checkout technology is being widely used in department stores, specialty stores, and small convenience stores to automate payments.

This eliminates the need for checkouts, queues, loading and unloading, and employees to operate the checkout counter. This type of automation reduces operational costs and saves time spent on manual billing. Self-checkout systems are being used extensively by retail stores in the USA and the UK. For instance, a survey on self-service checkouts in multiple countries found 90% of respondents use self-checkouts, of which Australia and Italy were leading.
