Read MoreThe Australian Beverages Council has been the leading peak body representing the non-alcoholic beverages industry for more than 70 years, and the only dedicated industry representation of its kind in Australia.
Our organisation strives to advance the industry as a whole, as well as to successfully represent the range of beverages produced by our members.
The unified voice of the Australian Beverages Council offers members a presence beyond individual representation to promote fairness in the standards, regulations, and policies concerning non-alcoholic beverages.
We advocate on issues such as portion sizes, environmental sustainability, nutrition labelling, responsible industry marketing and advertising, among many other issues pertinent to the industry.
The Australian Beverages Council is an important conduit between the non-alcoholic beverages industry and the Australian Government, and state and territory governments.
We also recognise collaboration between governments, public health, NGOs, communities and industry as crucial to reducing obesity and chronic disease.
