Refresh yourself ! Juices Juices......

Currently in Pakistan, there are 24 fruit juice/pulp processing units and a number of small units in the informal sector are working. The present installed capacity is estimated around 400,000 metric tons per annum with a demand for juices growing at a combined annual growth rate of 27%. The fruit juice industry reported sales of 8.526 billion Rupees in year 2008.
The outlook for the canned food industry - which can exploit rising demand for convenience and consumer fears over food origin and hygiene - and the soft drinks and beverages industry - which can capitalize on the asp rational demands of Pakistan's young population - have both been moderately accelerated. Forecast canned food sales growth to 2012 now stands at 46.7%, while soft drinks sales growth to 2012 is forecast to stand at 36.4%. Both have contributed to a per capita food consumption growth forecast amendment to 15.4%. It is also expected that the average consumption of the single person will be 85.5 hundred litters per years in 2012.
According to statistics, 2500,000 liters juices approx drink by Pakistani people in a month. And per day there is 83330 liters approx juices drink by people. The market of juices is growing because the consumption of juices increases every year and expected it increase continually due people change the life style and more health conscious. They prefer juices on other soft drink. The market share of the nestle juices is 60%. Which mean 1500,000 litters in a month and 50,000 litters in a day.
Nestle is name of pure life so quality is their guarantee. So if they lose their quality then they lose their sale because these don’t operate on the given image. And increase in rates of raw materials also influence the level of demand because due to increase in cost the sale price also increase and due to price war in a market of Pakistan demand level is effected. Or increase in tax there will be increased cost price which also effect in decreased in demand. Increase in inflation rate in Pakistan then this also effect in decrease in demand level. The nestle juices are at growing stage of product life cycle.

Market Trends
Tropical fruits and flavours dominate the market, yet some consumers are still hesitant to try unknown exotic flavours like cherimoya, guanabana and carambola. Companies have found the best way to introduce exotics is in combination with familiar flavours. A flavour combination that began in the new age, 5% to 10% juice category, and has spread to other beverage categories as well as to other products like kiwi, strawberry, etc. stating that it was a small company that took the risk and won.
Smaller companies lead the way, as they are more willing to try exotic flavours even though the larger companies have a larger staff and budget, and can afford to search out the trends. The large companies tend to introduce prototypes that are pretty well-tested. They are always interested in the next flavour trend, but usually are not the first to debut it.
Fortified drinks are also gaining market i.e. the juice is processed and an additional nutritious trait is added to enhance its wholesome value e.g. with additional calcium, vitamin C etc.
One can notice the population in the country mainly in the cities becoming more and more aware with regard to the nutritional aspect of life. This knowledge, coupled with the consumer’s desire for a healthier lifestyle, has greatly impacted the evolution of juice and juice-based drinks over the last few years.
