In order to limit the use of plastic bottles, the French company has developed a whole range of syrups and sweet concentrates to be mixed with still or sparkling water.

Description
The family business, located in the south of France, develops and manufactures various ranges of concentrated bases to make sweet drinks. The company offers a syrup range (7 flavors including lemon, mint, grenadine, peach, etc.), a juice range (multifruit, orange, pineapple), a soda range (9 categories including cola, tonic, lemonade, etc.) and a flavored water range (7 flavors including Mojito, mint, etc.).
Made with quality ingredients and where possible natural flavours and colorings, these bases are intended to be mixed with still or sparkling water using machines called "postmix" or even drink fountains (see image). This type of fountain is found in fast-food outlets, at the entrance of large retailers, at the reception of indoor or outdoor leisure centers, in hotel breakfast rooms, etc.
The products,100% made in France, are part of an eco-responsible approach of the company which favors short circuits in terms of supply, and eco-friendly packaging in recyclable cardboard and recycled plastic, while offering a creative design (see image). Packaged in BIBs mainly of 10L or 20L. but also 3 litres, these bases for soft drinks are a real alternative to plastic bottles and cans, a 10L BIB giving 60L to 70L of finished drink (see image).
When the product is sold to industrial customers to bottle their own drink under their own brand, the company offers 1000L drums or tanks.
The company covers most soft drinks available on the EU market, but it is also able to develop new formulations that could meet a specific need or a consumption habit in a particular country.
The company markets the BIBs mainly in France and exports the concentrates to few African drinks manufacturers. Today, it wishes to identify new partners in the EU as a priority but is open to any proposal in other countries.
The partners will be distributors or wholesalers working with the HORECA sector,or with manufacturers in the soft drink sector, or even distributors specializing in products sold in bulk, or distributors of postmix machines
The company wishes to establish distribution services agreements.
