77 suppliers are currently active in the Soda category, with 12 updating their listings in the last 30 days — a sign of steady, ongoing activity. This level of participation means buyers can expect a range of pricing, packaging, and regional variations, and that suppliers are regularly refreshing their offerings to stay competitive. 413 active listings are live right now, covering a wide array of flavors, bottle sizes, and brands. That depth makes it easier for buyers to find a match without needing to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes, especially for standard or common soda profiles. Suppliers come from 28 countries, offering broad geographic reach. This diversity means buyers aren’t limited to one region’s supply chain and can explore alternatives based on cost, regulatory environment, or specific flavor profiles, giving them more flexibility in sourcing decisions. Only 1 buyer inquiry came in over the last 30 days — a 66.7% drop from the previous month. This sharp decline suggests reduced interest at the moment, which could mean lower competition and faster response times from suppliers, or a temporary lull in demand.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Soda listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 24 October 2026 - 413 active listings, 52 buyer requests, 52 source documents, and 382 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Soda type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Soda, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
