Britvic plc was a United Kingdom-based manufacturer and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages. The company developed, produced and marketed carbonated soft drinks, still drinks, fruit juices, squashes, mixers and bottled water for retail, food-service and hospitality customers.
Its portfolio included well-known brands such as Robinsons, Tango, J2O, Fruit Shoot, R. White’s, London Essence and Plenish. Britvic also held the exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute PepsiCo’s carbonated soft drinks in Great Britain and Ireland under a long-standing bottling and distribution arrangement.
Founded in the United Kingdom in 1938, Britvic expanded beyond its domestic market through acquisitions, licensing arrangements and international operations. It served customers across the United Kingdom and Ireland, as well as selected European and other international markets, with products sold under both owned and licensed brands.
Carlsberg Group completed its acquisition of Britvic in 2025, bringing the business into a combined beverage operation. Prior to the transaction, Britvic was led by Chief Executive Officer Simon Litherland, who had served in the role since 2013.
