on

As evidence that consumers in India are looking for healthier options when it comes to food and drinks, recent data has shown that juices like Real, Slice and Tropicana have overtaken fizzy drinks like Coke and Pepsi in sales. This conclusion was arrived at by top industry officials after studying Nielsen data.

Juicing It Up

Both fresh and packaged juices have become the beverage of choice amongst many consumers. While the Nielsen data shows that in 2013 and 2014, Pepsi had the highest share value, in 2015 and 2015, Real, which is produced by Dabur overtook carbonated soda.

In fact, in the first half of 201, carbonated sodas were nowhere to be found on the top five selling list.
