Beverage Bottler Still Net Sales measures bottle/can revenue from still beverages such as energy drinks, water, sports drinks, ready-to-drink coffee and tea, juices, and related noncarbonated products.

Coca-Cola Consolidated reported $2.363 billion of Still bottle/can sales in 2025, up 6.1% from 2024.

Why it matters

Still sales help investors see how faster-growing noncarbonated categories change a bottler's revenue mix. Comparing still revenue with still volume can highlight pricing and mix effects that are not visible from total company sales alone.

Investor caution

Still is an issuer-defined category. Its brand, package, channel, and margin mix can differ materially from sparkling beverages, so category growth should not be interpreted as directly comparable profitability.

Part of the Beverage Bottling Operating Economics

Connect packaged-beverage revenue, standardized case volume, category mix, pricing contribution, gross margin, alternate sales channels, and customer concentration to understand beverage-bottler economics.

How the model fits together
  • Volume, pricing, and packaged-beverage revenue: Standard physical case volume provides an equivalent delivered-volume measure, while bottle/can sales and management's average selling-price contribution show how volume and realized revenue can diverge. The price contribution is an issuer attribution and should not be treated as a standardized pure-price measure.
  • Sparkling versus still category mix: Sparkling and Still sales paired with their respective standard physical case volumes separate category revenue growth from delivered-volume growth. Category definitions and package or channel mix remain issuer-specific, so the bridge does not imply standardized peer economics.
  • Revenue channels and customer concentration: Sales to other bottlers and post-mix sales show revenue outside the core direct bottle/can channel, while customer concentration shows how much direct volume and total revenue depend on major retailers. These exposures help explain revenue architecture and bargaining risk without implying that concentrated revenue is automatically impaired.
