2008 was a challenging year for the UK water cooler industry. Both large and small players alike were impacted by an unprecedented combination of economic turbulence, media criticism and another poor summer. These conditions prompted a renewed focus on profitability, revenue maximisation and customer retention, as price-sensitive consumers seek out the best possible value for money offerings.

As mains-fed point of use (POU) continues to encroach on bottled cooler market share, the majority of bottled water cooler operators have expanded their portfolios to include POU, acting to intensify competition for all players. Meanwhile, industry consolidation has seen a clear slowdown as funding becomes harder given the testing economic climate

The UK Water Coolers Report 2009 is broken down into 4 main sections:

A full market commentary provides in-depth analysis of trends.
