BOTTLED WATER IN PERU


HEADLINES
Off-trade volume and value sales of bottled water grow by 11% and 14%, reaching 598 million
litres and n/s1.1 billion, respectively in 2015
Bottled water is one of fastest-growing categories in soft drinks due to the healthy trend
adopted by Peruvian consumers and aggressive advertising campaigns
On-trade bottled value and volume sales of bottled water rise by 9% and 6% in 2015, showing
strength but at a slower pace than that of off-trade sales
Still bottled water sees fastest off-trade volume and value growth of 12% and 14%,
respectively in 2015
Average unit price growth of bottled water is slightly slower in 2015 than growth in previous
year, due mostly to the economic deceleration and high competition
Corp Lindley continues to lead bottled water with a 45% retail value share, followed by Ajeper
with 40%
Bottled water is expected to record a CAGR of 9% in off-trade volume and value sales at
constant 2015 prices over the forecast period

TRENDS
Peruvians are looking to take better care of their health, and that involves making a change in
their food and beverages intake; therefore, consumption of fast food and carbonates is
decreasing, whilst categories such as bottled water, juice and sports drinks are having a very
positive performance.
Governmental promotion of healthier habits through the Ministry of Health and also by
municipalities is creating greater consciousness amongst Peruvians about their wellbeing and
health. As the most natural and healthiest beverage available is bottled water, consumers
have been increasing their consumption of it considerably in the last few years and this trend
is expected to continue over time.
Day-to-day workers who do not bring a lunch box from home will eat out, and not always at
places where bottled water is always offered; therefore, the consumer needs to ask for it as
an alternative to other soft drinks on offer.
Unit price movement of bottled water rose by a slightly slower 2% in 2015 compared to the
previous year due mainly to promotions in the face of intense competition in the category.
Regarding the formats found in the category, bulk water in the country is mostly sold in 20-litre
carton dispensers that can easily be stored at home and even can come with a convenient
little plastic tap on the side for easier consumption.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Corp Lindley continued to lead in bottled water, accounting for 45% of the retail value sales in
2015. San Luis is the most important bottled water from Corp Lindleys portfolio, ranking
second after Ajepers Cielo. Its brand Aquarius is the leading flavoured bottle water on the
market by far, holding an 84% value share in 2015. Corp Lindleys success is based on its
long history on the market as well as on its ability to connect to consumers through different

marketing campaigns that target young adults looking to take care of their health by
consuming San Luis bottled water.
In 2015, Ajeper recorded the biggest increase in value sales, up by 16% compared to the
previous year. The company is very dynamically promotes its brand Cielo, with important
advertising campaigns, such as billboards, magazine and newspaper advertisements and
television commercials.
Domestic companies continued to dominate bottled water in 2015 with brands such as San
Luis, Cielo, San Mateo and Vida, amongst others. Although there are several international
brands present, such as Perrier, VOSS, Evian and others, most of them are positioned as
premium brands and directed only to high-income consumers and their distribution is limited
to some supermarkets.
Some domestic companies are looking to get into premium bottled water, which is well known
for high quality and outstanding prices compared to that of still regular bottled water, and this
segment is mostly led by international companies. Standard brands normally compete more
aggressively, using multimedia marketing campaigns involving television, radio, and internet
commercials, billboards, magazine and newspaper advertisements, and in-store promotions,
amongst many others.

PROSPECTS
Bottled water is predicted to record a CAGR of 9% in off-trade volume and value sales at
constant 2015 prices over the forecast period. The category is expected to continue growing
more rapidly than the economy, because consumers will continue to migrate from artificial
juice and carbonates to healthier alternatives such as bottled water. It is expected that in the
coming years consumers will be increasingly conscious about their health and healthy eating
and drinking.
Forecast data is not being significantly restated since the Peruvian economy is expected to be
stable in the coming years; no sudden changes are expected in the economy and political
matters, ensuring stability.
The volume and constant value CAGRs of 14% and 13%, respectively over the review period
were much higher than the average growth rates predicted for the forecast period. The growth
registered over the review period was very aggressive because it included many years of
economic growth in the country, where many categories began to develop promoted by
increased disposable incomes. For the coming years, positive growth is expected, but
showing moderate rates, because the country has already gone through many years of
economic growth.
Sudden political and economic turmoil in the country could affect the countrys stability, and
any changes in economic stability will affect growth of bottled water because consumers will
need to return to being more cautious about the products they consume and how they spend
money. Many products such as bottled water that could be easily replaceable could be
importantly affected should there be an onset of turmoil.
Carbonated bottled water and still bottled water are expected to produce strong performances
during the forecast period, registering total volume CAGRs of 8-9%. Both are considered to
be the healthy and this will be highly promoted over the coming years.
In 1914 Ajeper launched the bottled water Cielo Q10, enriched with coenzymes Q10; it has a
positive impact on health, is free of calories and has a light orange flavour. The performance
of Cielo Q10 is still not confirmed; however, it is still on the market, which means it is
attending to its target consumers.

Functional bottled water has growth potential because consumers are always looking to find
new products with more added value. Vivant dominated functional bottled water with a 95%
retail value share in 2015, so the competition is still low and consumers are eager to have
more options.
