Carlsberg Britvic wins the global accolade after being crowned Europe’s Bottler of the Year 2025 in April this year.
Carlsberg Britvic has been awarded International Beverages Bottler of the Year by PepsiCo, a recognition of its continued outstanding commercial success and the strength of the longstanding partnership between the two drinks giants.
Following securing the title of Europe’s Bottler of the Year, the international award further recognises the ambition and collaboration established by the evolving strategic partnership between Carlsberg Britvic and PepsiCo. The succession to international title highlights the sustained performance across the PepsiCo portfolio, consistent share gains and increased penetration in the Carbonated Soft Drinks category. The momentum created by strong growth in both volume and value in the year 2025 has created the conditions for sustained success in the years ahead.
2025 was also a year of firsts, with the release of the indulgent Pepsi zero sugar colas - Strawberries ‘N’ Cream and Cream Soda - its most successful Carbonated Soft Drink innovation in the last five years - which has continued to drive growth in the category. Performance has also been supported by Pepsi MAX, which has solidified itself as the leading variant in the UK Carbonated Soft Drinks category, along with the resurgence of 7UP and the introduction of Gatorade Hydration Enhancers.
The International Beverages Bottler of the Year award underscores the growing progress achieved through close collaboration with PepsiCo and reinforces Carlsberg Britvic’s position as the leading multi beverage powerhouse with global recognition.
Sharing this award with SMLC PepsiCo makes it more meaningful, two very different stories of what is possible across the One System network.
