Summary
Good weather puts commercial beverages into the black despite falls in dairy and hot drink volumes. Favourable weather conditions boosted demand for soft drinks and this contributed to a positive result for the quarter. Flavoured still waters make gains on new launches. The energy drinks market continues to prosper in Denmark. With the exception of butter milks, conditions were not suited to the consumption of dairy drinks during the period.

Key Findings
- Bulk/HOD category is the most weather sensitive category despite that it has seen growth this year

- Demand for juice has defied the expectations and continued to climb. Branded products of this category are taking share from Private Label

- Iced/RTD tea drinks have lost shelf space and this is hindering off-premise consumption

- The profile of hot tea and hot coffee remain high and has been helped by a surge in the number of coffee shops now operating in Denmark
