Although inflation slowed in 2024, the purchasing power of Romanian consumers remained low due to the inflation-wage gap from 2023. This was reflected in a negative volume performance for soft drinks. Changes in taxation were a significant factor affecting the market, with the VAT rate increasing from 9% to 19% in 2023 and an additional excise tax on drinks with high sugar content coming into effect.
