In Europe, the soft drinks market is primarily driven by changing consumer preferences towards healthier options, with demand increasing for low-sugar, organic, and functional drinks. This shift is particularly pronounced in Western Europe, where rising health awareness has prompted a decline in the consumption of sugary sodas in favor of bottled water, fruit juices, and energy drinks.

Despite these changes, carbonated soft drinks remain a staple, with innovations in flavors and formulations maintaining consumer interest.
