Britvic: poppi's UK launch showcases investment behind healthier soft drinks

Published: 10 June 2026 Updated: 10 June 2026

Launched in the UK in March 2026, poppi is a modern soda for adults seeking bold flavour that’s low-sugar, low-calorie and high in fibre. Each 330ml can contains less than 5g sugar, is 27kcal or fewer, and has 3g or more fibre.  

Bringing poppi to the UK at scale was technically demanding with significant manufacturing complexity, requiring bespoke production methods, specialist site capabilities and close collaboration across supply chains. Producing poppi was also dependent on Carlsberg Britvic’s sustained investment in advanced manufacturing infrastructure, showcasing how Carlsberg Britvic and PepsiCo are investing and innovating to expand healthier choices for UK consumers.
