Bottled Drinking Water
Bottled drinking water and sports drinks from Vietnam: Lavie mineral water, Aquafina purified, and the Aquarius sports range including the zero sugar version. Bottles from 350ml to 1.5L, each with its units per carton.
What this shelf covers
Two different goods under one heading. Mineral water is Lavie, from a source, and the mineral analysis is part of what a buyer is importing. Purified water is Aquafina, treated rather than sourced, and it competes on price and on brand. The sports drinks sit here rather than with soft drinks because they are bought for the same occasion as water, and the zero sugar version is a separate SKU for the markets that tax the other one.

The hardest thing in this catalogue to freight
Water is the lowest value per kilo on the site, so the freight is a larger share of the landed cost than for anything else here, and a container of 1.5L bottles is at its weight limit while still looking half empty. It is worth shipping when it travels as part of a mixed beverage load or when the destination has no local bottler. Say the destination first and the desk will tell you plainly whether the numbers work.
