The bottled water market in China is likely to register a CAGR of over 3.2% with an incremental growth of USD 6.4 billion during the forecast period 2024-2029. The bottled water market in China is driven by concerns over water quality, health and wellness trends, urbanization, rising incomes, environmental awareness, and effective marketing strategies. These factors collectively shape consumer behavior and drive the sustained growth of the bottled water market in the country.
Despite significant improvements in water treatment infrastructure, many consumers still perceive tap water as unsafe due to potential contamination from industrial pollutants, agricultural runoff, and aging municipal systems. This concern over water safety propels the demand for bottled water, which is viewed as a more reliable and safer option.
Health and wellness trends are also crucial in shaping the bottled water market in China. With a growing middle class and increasing disposable incomes, consumers are becoming more health-conscious, seeking out products that align with a healthier lifestyle.
