💧 Several of our members are participating in the Global Water Summit this week in Madrid. Water is a priority for our sector. It is an essential ingredient in our soft drinks, making up over 90% of their content. It is also vital for the communities we serve.

A few days ago, our Director General Nicholas Hodac was in Romania for the launch of the study ‘The socio-economic impact of the soft drinks industry in Romania’, conducted by the Academia de Studii Economice din București (ASE) for our Romanian member association.

🏠📍 It all happens close to home. Our sector invests, innovates and produces over 97% of our soft drinks locally across more than 500 manufacturing plants in Europe. 🌍 A strong example of this deep local presence is Sumol Compal.

Schools across Europe may close for the Easter holiday, but our sector’s commitment does not pause. We remain focused on the implementation of our school policies across the continent: 🔹We DO NOT sell our soft drinks in EU primary schools

What does Bornholms Mosteri A/S mean to Denmark and to Europe? A lot! It means local jobs and local production, given that Bornholms Mosteri A/S is a beverage company producing soft drinks in Denmark with local workers. As Josephine Senger Svendsen, CEO of Bornholms Mosteri, puts it:

New school term underway, same strong commitment to our school policies! Our sector will keep delivering on our school commitment to supporting balanced diets from an early age: 🔹 We do NOT sell our #SoftDrinks in EU primary schools (through direct distribution)

Does Roma sound familiar to you? This soft drinks company has supported local jobs and invested significantly in Norway for more than 100 years by producing beverages at its local manufacturing site just outside Oslo.

🎄 All of us at UNESDA send our warmest wishes for a happy holiday season with your loved ones and a bright start to the new year. Thank you for being part of our journey in 2025! We look forward to reconnecting with you in January. 🙂

Are you an Association professional? Europe’s biggest Association gathering is coming back to Brussels! Join us at the European Association Summit on 26 March, hosted by the European Society of Association Executives (ESAE), of which UNESDA is a member.

Nothing beats a local story to demonstrate how our sector matters to Europe’s economy and communities. 🎥 Watch the video snippet below from Merlin’s Beverages, a soft drinks company that is creating hundreds of jobs and driving sustainable growth across Romania

Just got word that if you're getting your passport in Washington DC, it might come with Donald Trump's face on it - but if you get it anywhere else, he won't be making an appearance. This is definitely a weird one to wrap your head around. Credit: @aaronparnas.bsky.social | Source #TrumpPassport

While the Coalition fights among themselves, the govt is pushing bad policy. A tax on unrealised capital gains on super and an extension to the North West Shelf in WA needs serious scrutiny. We need serious tax reform and urgent climate action, not bad proposals. #ClimateAction #auspol

加拿大总理卡尼表示： “加拿大为阿尔伯塔带来了巨大的优势，而阿尔伯塔也为加拿大带来了巨大价值。我们团结在一起绝对更强大，在一起会更好，我们会成为更好的人，也会更加富有。” “大多数国家都不认为自己正朝着正确方向前进。而加拿大，尽管存在各种不完美和挑战，加拿大人依然认为我们正走在正确道路上。其中一个原因，就是因为我们是加拿大人，因为我们知道，我们会团结起来，共同寻找更好的道路。” “提出这些根本性问题有帮助吗？没有，没有帮助，当然没有。 这是阿尔伯塔民众的民主意志吗？他们在上一次省选中是为这个投票的吗？不是。 这不在选票上，也不在执政党和官方反对党的授权内容或竞选纲领之中。”
