82 suppliers are actively offering Soft Drink on the platform, which provides a solid pool of options for buyers to compare pricing, packaging, and terms. While not the largest category in terms of supplier volume, this number still ensures meaningful competition—buyers can negotiate better deals without being limited to a single source. 446 listings are currently active, covering a wide range of flavors, bottle sizes, and packaging types. This breadth means buyers are likely to find a close match to their specific needs without having to start from scratch or rely on custom quotes. Suppliers come from 24 countries, offering broad geographic diversity. This wide reach gives buyers flexibility to source based on cost, regulatory compliance, or regional preferences—especially useful for companies looking to diversify their supply chains or avoid over-reliance on one region. Buyer inquiries dropped 64.5% over the last 30 days, suggesting a temporary slowdown in demand. While this may mean fewer suppliers are being contacted right now, it could also indicate a window of opportunity—fewer buyers mean more room to secure a deal with a supplier who might otherwise be oversold.

How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Soft Drink gained 22 new listings in the last 30 days, more than the 12 the month before. New offers are arriving at a faster rate, so the catalog a buyer sees today includes more recent pricing or packaging options. Compare listing dates when evaluating similar offers to ensure the most up-to-date information is chosen.
Is the market busy?
17 of the 82 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, a mix of long-standing and new sellers. Buyers have access to both established and newer names, which increases the range of options but means some new sellers have less history to evaluate. The existing sellers have a longer track record, which helps in assessing consistency. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out to a new one.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Soft Drink listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 15 October 2026 - 446 active listings, 37 buyer requests, 71 source documents, and 504 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 Soft Drink 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 Soft Drink, 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.
