Today, coconut water is the fast-growing new category, with retail sales already above 0 million (€327.5 million), thanks to its strong isotonic, hypo-allergenic and all-natural health benefits.

Using new processing technologies and new brands, start-up companies in Germany, the US and elsewhere are growing coconut water sales quickly and commanding premium prices. Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Europe’s biggest brewing families and even Madonna have invested in the sector.
