The global bottled water market size is expected to reach USD 505.19 billion by 2028. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 11.1% from 2021 to 2028.

COVID-19 has impacted the market for bottled water as many quick-service restaurants have been witnessing a significant drop in their sales.

Bottled Water Market Report Highlights
The inclination toward packaged water rather than ordinary water, particularly among younger consumers, drives product sales. Observing this trend, several restaurants are providing bottled water to meet consumer demand.
The purified water segment held the largest share of more than 35.0% in 2020. According to a United Nations study published in 2018, there are almost 16,000 desalination plants across 177 countries that provide purified water.
The sparkling water segment is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment with a CAGR of 11.7% from 2021 to 2028.
