For now, it will have a minimal effect on the soda industry. But over time, such measures could become problematic for an industry that has reported 11 straight years of volume declines for carbonated soft drinks in the U.S
There is only ONE WAY to remedy this, ALL These Beverage companies need to band together and STOP ALL DISTRIBUTION to Philly. If they do, this law will be REPEALED in a WEEK!!! GUARANTEED.
90% of PROFIT of ALL Fast Food, Restaurants, is BEVERAGES, Namely SODA. A Complete halt in Distribution will CRIPPLE THE ENTIRE CITY and Business Community.
movie theatre patrons already pay this price for popcorn and soda, and now to add more to soda prices.
Years ago I worked in a fast food restaurant. We were told the ice and cup were more expensive than the soda.
Excellent post. Cut them off from soft drinks for a week or so.
