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

Summary
Figure 8: Forces driving competition in the global carbonated soft drinks market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

Whilst high fixed costs serve to enhance rivalry, moderate market growth during the review period (2013–2017) has
alleviated this to some extent.

On-trade outlets are the main distribution channel in the global carbonated soft drink market. Hypermarkets and
supermarkets are also significant. Though retailers are unlikely to be swayed by brand loyalty, they are compelled to
stock brands preferred by consumers. Buyer power in this market is driven by low switching costs.

Leading companies must maintain product quality if they are to maintain their brand equity in the long term. However, a
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 is
possible for a new entrant to achieve small-scale success by stressing a unique production method or nutritional
benefits.

Substitutes to carbonated soft drinks include 100% juices, fruit based drinks, and ready to drink (RTD) iced tea and
coffee, which pose a moderate threat.

© MARKETLINE THIS PROFILE IS A LICENSED PRODUCT AND IS NOT TO BE PHOTOCOPIED Page | 15


Buyer power
Figure 9: Drivers of buyer power in the global carbonated soft drinks market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

On-trade businesses constitute the major buyers in the global carbonated drinks market, accounting for 37.8% of the
total market value in 2017; hypermarkets and supermarkets are also significant, with 36.5% of the overall value that year.
Thus, the size of the average buyer is large, which enhances their negotiating position and increases buyer power. Large
retailers, such as supermarkets, can make large purchases and negotiate on price with manufacturers, boosting 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. There are also several ways for market players to differentiate their products. Moreover, though
manufacturers are dependent on packaging companies, this is less so for the retailers of finished products. Therefore,
buyer power is overall assessed as moderate.

Global - Carbonated Soft Drinks 0199 - 0028 - 2017

© MARKETLINE THIS PROFILE IS A LICENSED PRODUCT AND IS NOT TO BE PHOTOCOPIED Page | 16


Supplier power
Figure 10: Drivers of supplier power in the global carbonated soft drinks market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The primary inputs for carbonated soft drinks manufacturers include carbon dioxide, acidity (pH), flavorings, and a range
of natural and synthetic sweeteners such as corn syrup and aspartame.

Some of these commodities, although available from several sources, are subject to price fluctuations. Others
(aspartame for instance) 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.

New entrants
Figure 11: Factors influencing the likelihood of new entrants in the global carbonated soft drinks
market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

Large multinational players such as Coca-Cola and PepsiCo dominate the market. The top 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 carbonated soft drinks market are able to distinguish their products to some extent by stressing health
benefits 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 by 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 facilities in order to produce the concentrates. This is
generally capital-intensive and can restrict market entry. However, market niches can be exploited by new entrants. A
number of larger players have already done this by catering for local tastes. Additionally, changes in consumer
preferences have caused 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 drinks to be prepared in hygienic conditions. Specific ingredients may be subject to regulation.
Concerns about rising levels of obesity have led many countries to impose special taxes on the sale of sugary drinks,
which will decrease the consumption of many soft drink products. Increased regulation will discourage newcomers.

The global carbonated soft drinks market recorded moderate growth during the review period. This is likely to encourage
newcomers. Overall, the likelihood of new entrants is moderate.

Threat of substitutes
Figure 12: Factors influencing the threat of substitutes in the global carbonated soft drinks
market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The substitutes for carbonated soft drinks primarily include 100% juices, fruit based drinks, and RTD iced tea and coffee.
Leading players tend to have diverse product ranges, which reduces the threat posed by substitutes. For example,
Nestlé is a major player in the coffee market as well as being a leading manufacturer of carbonated soft drinks. Overall,
there is a moderate threat from substitutes.

Degree of rivalry
Figure 13: Drivers of degree of rivalry in the global carbonated soft drinks market, 2017

SOURCE: MARKETLINE MARKETLINE

The global carbonated soft drinks market is concentrated, with the top four leading players, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Dr
Pepper Snapple Group and Suntory Holdings, accounting for 80.7% of the market’s value in 2017. Notably, Coca-Cola
secured 53.8% of the total market share in 2017.

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. Moreover, 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 that manufactures ready-
for-consumption carbonated 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 have fewer assets, and exit is therefore easier.

The moderate growth of the market during the review period helps to decrease the intensity of rivalry. Overall, there is a
moderate degree of rivalry in the global carbonated soft drinks market.
