Sparkling beverages grew by 26% driven by improved product availability following the commissioning of the Graniteside packaging line in August 2011. This growth will be supported by investment in a second PET line to be commissioned in Bulawayo ahead of the festive season.
The contribution of our premium brands and packages is steadily increasing and new products and packages were introduced, affording the consumer more choice. We made market share gains across all the beverage categories.
