Singapore trails U.S. in soft drink innovation

In 2023, Singapore introduced 88 new brands and sub-brands in the soft drinks space,

Singapore accounted for nearly 10% of all new brand launches in the beverages industry globally, Euromonitor reported.

With its share, Singapore also emerged as one of the top three countries for product innovation and brand launches in the beverages industry, which includes soft drinks, hot drinks and Alcoholic Ready-To-Drinks (RTDs)

Singapore is also second to the United States in product innovation in the soft drinks space with 88 new brands and sub-brands launched since January 2023.

“With consumers in Singapore and the Asia Pacific adjusting their diets to relieve stress and anxiety, the region is well positioned to stimulate interest in established brands by focusing on expanding their range of functional drinks containing herbal ingredients such as chamomile and ginger, which support emotional and mental wellbeing,” Euromonitor said.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers.

The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.
