About Britvic
Britvic Soft Drinks is one of the two leading soft drinks
businesses in Great Britain. Highly successful innovations
have helped Britvic become the no.1 supplier of still soft
drinks, while remaining the number two supplier of
carbonates.
Britvic Soft Drinks has a long and rich history that extends
back to Victorian England and further. The British Vitamin
Products Company - from which Britvic takes its abbreviated
name - was founded in the mid-nineteenth century in the
market town of Chelmsford in Essex.
The company was then
little more than a home business run from a chemist's shop,
not unusual for a soft drinks producer of the time. Soon the
company was producing all kinds of originally concocted soft
drinks, including lemonades, mineral waters, tonics and
non-alcoholic ales.
Britvic upholds a proactive environmental policy overseen by
a dedicated working group. It ensures that they meet the
high standards expected of a company acknowledged to be
amongst the U.K's most environmentally responsible.
All in all, it makes for an exciting and inspiring mix. Just
like their soft drinks. |
