France Bottled Water Market 2025

A modest growth trajectory is forecasted for the France bottled water market, with an expected increase of USD 0.5 billion and a CAGR of roughly 1.7% from 2025 through 2030. France’s bottled water market is shaped by entrenched cultural consumption habits and strong segmentation between still and sparkling mineral categories.

Unlike many European countries where tap water suffices in daily life, French consumers have a longstanding preference for bottled mineral water, reinforced by tradition and culinary norms. Bottled water is considered an essential component of mealtime consumption and is widely available in restaurants, offices, and households. Sparkling variants enjoy widespread popularity, with regional variations in taste driving brand loyalty and differentiation.

Additionally, French consumers are attentive to the specific mineral content of bottled water, often choosing varieties based on dietary or health concerns, such as digestive support or low sodium intake. Regulatory oversight on water source labeling and composition enhances consumer confidence, further embedding bottled water into everyday habits. Environmental concerns, however, are prompting a shift toward glass packaging and circular solutions, with policy and public campaigns targeting reductions in plastic waste.
