Trend of Soft Drinks:

China's soft drink industry is relatively new.

China's soft drink industry started late, but the speed of development is very impressive, 1981~1994, an average annual growth rate of 24.7%, is one of the fastest growing industries in the food industry. 1994, the total output of soft drinks has reached 6.28 million tons, 20 times more than in the early 80's.

This is the first time that the soft drink industry in China has been developed, and it is the first time that the soft drink industry in China has been developed.

But what is not optimistic is that, due to the large population base in China, compared with the annual per capita consumption of 42.75kg of beverages in the world, China is only 1/8 of it, and compared with developed countries such as the U.S.A., it is only 1/34. The development of China's soft drinks is not only urgent, but also has great potential for development.
