Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the RTD tea market in Cambodia is the growing demand for natural and organic products. Consumers are increasingly seeking out beverages that are made from natural ingredients and free from artificial additives. This trend aligns with the global movement towards clean label products and reflects a growing awareness of the potential health risks associated with consuming artificial ingredients. Another trend in the market is the introduction of innovative flavors and blends. RTD tea brands in Cambodia are constantly experimenting with new flavors and combinations to cater to the evolving tastes of consumers. This includes unique fruit-infused teas, herbal blends, and even tea-based energy drinks.
