Industry Profiles

6. Five Forces Analysis


The soft drinks market will be analyzed taking manufacturers of soft drinks as players. The key buyers will be taken as
distributors and retailers of soft drinks, and producers of packaging, soft drinks ingredients and other raw materials as
the key suppliers.

6.1. Summary
Figure 8: Forces driving competition in the soft drinks market in Asia-Pacific, 2018

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

High fixed costs work to drive up rivalry, strong market growth during the review period (2014-2018) has served to
alleviate this somewhat.
On-trade outlets are the main distribution channel in the Asia-Pacific soft drink market. Hypermarkets & supermarkets
are also significant. Retailers are unlikely to be swayed by brand loyalty, but they will have to stock brands preferred
by consumers. Buyer power in this market is driven up by low switching costs.
Leading companies must maintain product quality if they are to maintain their brand equity in the long term.
However, lack of differentiation in commodity inputs weakens supplier power.
The threat of new entrants is moderate due to fair capital investments and the presence of well-established brands. It
can be possible for a new entrant to achieve small-scale success stressing a unique production method or nutritional
benefits.
There are effective substitutes for soft drinks, such as non-ready-to-drink hot drinks and alcoholic beverages, which
pose a moderate threat.

6.2. Buyer power


Figure 9: Drivers of buyer power in the soft drinks market in Asia-Pacific, 2018

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The main distribution channels for the Asia-Pacific soft drinks market are on-trade outlets, which accounted for 43.4%
of the total market value 2018. Hypermarkets & supermarkets are also significant, accounted for 33.9% of the total
market value in 2018.
The degree of retail concentration varies significantly from country to country. Countries such as China or India, the
retail market remains highly fragmented. South Korea retains a surprisingly large traditional market sector. Western-
style retail formats are correspondingly growing in this region. Low retail concentration generally implies weaker
buyer power.
Brands are highly important to consumers in this market, which weakens buyer power because it is important for
retailers to stock popular brands. Also, there are several ways for market players to differentiate their products.
Moreover, bottling companies highly dependent on soft drink concentrate manufacturers but retailers of finished
products less so. Therefore, overall buyer power assessed as moderate.

Industry Profiles

6.3. Supplier power


Figure 10: Drivers of supplier power in the soft drinks market in Asia-Pacific, 2018

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The primary inputs for soft drinks manufacturers include fruit juice concentrates, flavorings, a range of natural and
synthetic sweeteners such as corn syrup, aspartame, and similar ingredients.
Some of these commodities, although available from several sources, are subject to price fluctuations. Others (e.g.
aspartame) are provided by only one or two major suppliers. However, even in these cases, there are usually
substitutes available. For example, if aspartame becomes expensive or unobtainable then it can be substituted by
saccharine and other similar products.
Water, which is a major input, may raise concerns for multinational players, especially in countries where water
scarcity represents a risk factor for their business.
The power of packaging manufacturers is growing since there is a growing demand for more consumer and
environmentally friendly packaging.
Overall, supplier power is moderate in this market.

6.4. New entrants


Figure 11: Factors influencing the likelihood of new entrants in the soft drinks market in Asia-Pacific, 2018

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The Asia-Pacific soft drinks market recorded strong growth during the review period. This tends to encourage
newcomers. China and India in particular have seen rapid growth in their soft drinks sales. Large, multinational players
such as, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo dominate the market. The leading players, wield significant power and benefit from
scale economies, strong brands, and a diverse range of products. Private labels also greatly influence the
environment.
Players in the soft drinks market can try to distinguish their products to some extent by stressing their health benefits
(especially for juices and functional drinks) and taste. Although it would be difficult for a new entrant to compete with
the brand strength and reach of existing players, it may be possible to achieve small-scale success stressing a unique
production method or nutritional benefits.
Even if a new player opts for a business model in which much of the production process is performed by bottling
partners under license, there will still be a need to invest in manufacturing capacity in order to produce the
concentrates. This will generally be fairly capital-intensive and can restrict market entry. However, market niches can
be exploited by new entrants. Some of the larger players have already done this by catering for local tastes.
Additionally, changing consumer preferences cause a shift towards health-oriented wellness drinks.
Government regulation affects several aspects of soft drink manufacturing. For example, in most countries there are
requirements for food and drink to be prepared in hygienic conditions. Specific ingredients may be subject to
regulation: the natural low-calorie sweetener stevia has been used in Japan since 1971, whereas most other countries
in the region have only permitted its use in the last few years. Increasing tax or regulation tends to discourage
newcomers.
Overall, there is a moderate likelihood of new entrants.

The substitutes for soft drinks primarily include non-ready-to-drink hot drinks and alcoholic beverages. Leading
players tend to have diverse product ranges, which reduces the threat posed by substitutes. Overall, there is a
moderate threat from substitutes.

6.6. Degree of rivalry


Figure 13: Drivers of degree of rivalry in the soft drinks market in Asia-Pacific, 2018

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The Asia-Pacific soft drinks market is fragmented with the top four players, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Suntory Holdings and
Tingyi Holding Corp holding 32.5% of the total market by value 2018, Coca-Cola leading the market with 18.3% market
share.
The players in this market are fairly similar: most operate primarily in the food and drink industry. This increases
rivalry, and means that market fluctuations are likely to affect companies in the same way. Switching costs are low:
buyers can switch from one player to another without incurring costs. This boosts rivalry.
The ease of exit depends to some extent on the business model of the company. A company, which manufactures
ready-for-consumption soft drinks in a single integrated process, will need to dispose of assets such as specialized
equipment in order to exit the market. On the other hand, a company of the same size that operates in conjunction
with a network of bottling partners will tend to have fewer assets, and exit is therefore easier.
The strong growth of the market helps to decrease the intensity of rivalry. Overall, there is a moderate degree of
rivalry in the Asia-Pacific soft drinks market.
