Ready To Drink Coffee Report 2007 Available Now
RTD coffee is not a new concept but a number of factors indicate that the segment has the potential to achieve significant growth in some major international beverage markets over the coming years. The combined markets of Japan, North America and West Europe saw consumption reach 3,163 million litres by the end of 2006, equating to an estimated market value of Euros 12,410 million.
Ready to drink (RTD) coffee contains either brewed coffee, instant coffee or coffee extract and usually sugar and milk or cream. It is generally packaged in a convenient format for on the go consumption. RTD coffee is generally served and consumed chilled (‘iced coffee’), except in Japan where vending machines are capable of heating and serving the drinks warm. (Coffee-flavoured soft drinks, such as Coke BlaK, are not included within this definition or the scope of Zenith’s report.)
Zenith’s 2007 Ready to Drink Coffee report is based on detailed research into the opportunities and threats facing the burgeoning RTD coffee market. Zenith’s outline findings are that Japan, the birthplace of RTD coffee, is currently the most advanced market and provides an indication of the segment’s potential. Coffee bean varieties, roasting techniques, organic and functional ingredients now form a vital part of the product mix in Japan.
Overall, the international market for RTD coffee has in the last few years been characterised by:
-- An explosion in new product development, particularly in Japan and North America
-- A flattening out of the maturing market in volume terms in Japan
-- Double digit volume growth in West Europe and high single digit growth in North America.
