Tourists often prefer to consume bottled water to ensure their safety and avoid any potential health risks. This has created an additional market for bottled water companies, further driving the growth of the industry. In conclusion, the Bottled Water market in Moldova has been developing due to a combination of customer preferences, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors.
