The regionality of the market must be taken into account for the table water sector, which includes sparkling waters: in the industry, factories need to be as close as possible to water sources. In France, the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region is responsible for over 40% of jobs in the table water sector, and boasts emblematic towns such as Volvic and Evian. Occitanie is also a leading region, with 1,282 employees in this sector and its Quézac and Perrier sparkling waters. Demand for bottled sparkling water is built on a solid consumer base in France, with an average affluent individual over 65 years of age. The challenges facing players in the sector are manifold, not least the environmental impact of sparkling water packaging. The French population is increasingly aware of environmental issues, and buyers are seeking to reduce their impact by purchasing in an eco-responsible way. This is why major groups are investing so heavily in R&D to find green packaging solutions: in 2019, Nestlé, for example, opened theInstitute of Packaging Science to create and develop biobased forms of packaging.
