Packaged beverages refer to liquid beverages that are pre-packaged in containers such as bottles, cans, cartons, or pouches for convenient consumption. These beverages encompass a wide range of products, including soft drinks, juices, bottled water, energy drinks, ready-to-drink teas and coffees, sports drinks and flavoured waters. A common theme is that these drinks are often produced from three basic ingredients: water, sugar and flavouring, so packaging and distribution are their main investments. Alcoholic drinks are not usually included in this classification. The packages themselves are normally made of Glass, Plastic or carton.
