- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- Carbonates suffers volume declines resulting from quarantine period, with on-trade sales of popular non-cola carbonates taking the greatest hit in 2020
- Product innovations and recent product launches responding to health and wellness trends help sustain interest in carbonates in 2020
- Loyalty factor remains low in Ukraine, and frequent price promotions from most popular major brands reduces pressure from low-priced segment in 2020
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Demand for new product innovations, low-calorie options as well as a greater need for indulgence are likely to drive demand for carbonates over the forecast period
- Low-calorie cola, orange and other non-cola carbonates will drive sales but carbonates soft drinks perceived as healthier will present a greater challenge
- Players will try to foster more consumption occasions for certain types of carbonates, bearing in mind that those with perceived health benefits have the greatest potential

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- Covid-19-related lockdowns, overall crisis conditions and related economic downturn impact juice more negatively than carbonates and bottled water in 2020
- Multiple benefits of juice are not as readily apparent to consumers compared to that of other types of soft drinks
- Per capita consumption remains low despite higher growth inspired by health and wellness trends, which do not transcend price concerns or result in habitual buying
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Juice is expected to fully recover from impact of COVID-19, albeit at a slower rate than that of other soft drinks categories
- As COVID-19 is expected to have a negative impact on the Ukrainian economy, price sensitivity will continue to shape consumer interest in juice
- Higher health awareness along with new product launches and promotions are expected to positively impact demand for juice over the forecast period

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- COVID-19 lockdowns and quarantine periods resulting in lower demand for bottled water in small containers for on the go results in stronger volume decline in 2020
- Ukrainian consumption of bottled water is lower than the regional average, as many consumers cannot afford to purchase bottled products on a regular basis
- For many Ukrainians with lower disposable incomes in an unstable economy, tap water is a more feasible option than bottled water
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- While bottled water will see higher volume and value growth rates over the forecast period, negative economic impacts of COVID-19 will limit more rapid development
- Per capita consumption is set to increase, but grey market presence may impede the ability to gain an accurate picture of real per capita levels over the forecast period
- Despite higher health awareness and closer attention to the quality of water they consume, many consumers will likely stay with tap water and other cheaper options

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- Starting from a low base and building on the 2019 launch of Powerade, sports drinks sees strong off-trade volume growth that compensates for on-trade losses in 2020
- Changes in consumer behaviour during COVID-19 lockdown and social distancing period result in strong volume growth in off-trade sales of sports drinks in 2020
- Higher per capita growth of sports drinks is hindered by lack of awareness, its narrower distribution compared to that of bottled water and its higher unit price
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Culture of informed consumption developing in Ukraine is expected to result in greater interest in and demand for sports drinks over the forecast period
- After COVID-19 wave recedes, sports drinks is set to benefit from consumers’ increased exposure to the products in gyms and other sports facilities
- Powerade launch, behavioural changes prompted by the pandemic, and other developments are set to boost category growth, despite its remaining relatively niche

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- While unable to compensate for COVID-19-related on-trade losses, off-trade sales are strong enough to result in positive total volume and value growth in 2020
- Failure of many to see a functional difference between energy drinks and other carbonates leads to lower per capita consumption than the regional average
- Despite higher unit price of energy drinks, loyal consumers cognizant of the benefits continued to buy them in 2020
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Leading players expected to focus on educating consumers about the functional benefits that distinguish energy drinks from other soft drinks over the forecast period
- Recovery of horeca and growing culture of informed consumption in Ukraine will play a significant role in boosting prospects for energy drinks in coming years
- Consumption per capita gap between Ukraine and other players in the region likely to shrink as players focus on promoting benefits and responsible consumption

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- COVID-19 has little impact on concentrates, which lacks sufficient popularity in Ukraine to drive interest in consumption despite job losses and lower income in 2020
- No new product developments are seen in powder or liquid concentrates in 2020 as producers see little potential in this category
- Low per capita consumption of concentrates not only in Ukraine, but in Eastern Europe in general, reflects the category’s overall unpopularity in the region
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Negative volume growth is expected year on year for concentrates over the forecast period, as consumers continue to show more interest in other soft drinks categories
- As soft drinks other than concentrates have higher potential, producers will continue to focus product development and marketing efforts there instead of in this category
- In the absence of producer interest and investment in concentrates, those that have traditionally used them or who seek cheaper options will remain the consumer base

- KEY DATA FINDINGS
- 2020 IMPACT
- With COVID-19 restrictions leaving consumers with fewer occasions to opt for RTD tea, off-trade and on-trade value and volume sales dip by double digits in 2020
- Per capita consumption of RTD tea remains below the regional average as Ukrainian consumers continue to opt more often for carbonates and bottled water
- Coca-Cola’s and Sandora’s two leading RTD tea brands continue to account for more than 90% of total retail volume sales in 2020
- RECOVERY AND OPPORTUNITIES
- Producers expect to drive higher sales of RTD tea with product innovation and a focus on developing benefits and occasions for consuming iced tea
- Ukrainian per capita consumption will remain lower than the regional average but the gap is expected to continue diminishing over the forecast period
- Double-digit volume and value growth expected for still RTD tea, driven by retail sales during warmer months after COVID-19 no longer impedes higher consumption
