# Three-Pronged Approach: How Tsingtao Youjia Opens Up New Consumption Scenarios?

> The long-missed hustle and bustle of daily life is returning with the surprise of new consumption. More consumers are noticing a new item on restaurant beverage menus: Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water. Recently, Tsingtao Youjia Health Beverage Co., Ltd. and Tibet Glacier Mineral Water Co., Ltd. jointly announced the launch of a co-branded product, "Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water."

The long-missed hustle and bustle of daily life is returning with the surprise of new consumption.
More and more consumers are noticing that many restaurants have added a new item to their beverage menus: Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water. This high-end drinking water, which for years was only available in special channels like high-speed rail and airports, has quietly appeared in restaurants as they regain their popularity, like a butterfly fluttering down from a niche market. Recently, Tsingtao Youjia Health Beverage Co., Ltd. and Tibet Glacier Mineral Water Co., Ltd. jointly announced the launch of a co-branded product, **"Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water."**
Including Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water, Tsingtao Youjia's Youhuojia brand product portfolio now includes barley tea, Dashanyuan ginger drink, hawthorn juice, Jiangxiaochang sparkling water, and Guoran Qipai soda sparkling water, among others. Together with its "Dashan" and "Yunnan Spring" products, Tsingtao Youjia is continuously expanding its product lines and creating new consumption scenarios for healthy beverages by leveraging high-end, health, and youth-oriented strategies.

**01 Youhuojia + 5100: Bringing High-End Drinking Water to Ordinary Homes**
The co-branded launch of Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water has once again drawn industry attention.
This reflects consumption upgrading and represents a win-win resource sharing through brand cross-border collaboration. This partnership means that Tsingtao Youjia's nationwide network of over 3.7 million catering and distribution channels has given 5100 the wings to fly into ordinary homes, allowing high-end drinking water to reach consumers through more channels.
Glacier water is globally recognized as one of the best freshwater resources. 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water is sourced from the pristine glaciers at an altitude of 5,100 meters in the Nyenchen Tanglha Mountains. Its lithium, strontium, and metasilicic acid content exceed national standards, making it a rare, high-quality natural weak alkaline low-deuterium glacier mineral water.
Tsingtao Youjia's partnership with 5100 **not only expands its product categories, using the superior product quality of Youhuojia 5100 Tibet Glacier Mineral Water to shape the Youhuojia brand's value proposition of health pursuit, but also strategically takes an important step toward the broader health industry.**
Furthermore, "Pure Life," "Dashan," and "Yunnan Spring," now under Tsingtao Youjia, are also synonymous with high-end quality water. Among them, "Dashan" brand Yunnan Spring, rooted in Yunnan for over 20 years, originates from a rare water source in a highland pure land at an altitude of about 2,034 meters. Known as a natural soft spring water with "both strength and gentleness," it is rich in minerals such as metasilicic acid, known as "gold in water," and has held the number one market share in Yunnan's packaged drinking water market for consecutive years.

**02 Consumers Are Becoming More "Discerning": The More Natural, The Healthier**
Drinking water is an essential necessity in our lives. With the continuous upgrading of consumption levels, consumers' demand for branded, diversified, and high-end water is becoming increasingly prominent. Additionally, consumers pay special attention to deep groundwater and high-altitude water sources that are free from pollution. This shows that the quality of the water source enhances consumers' motivation to purchase. The Tibet Glacier at an altitude of 5,100 meters, as a "pure natural, pollution-free" rare mineral water resource, offers superior water quality and better taste, making it stand out in the competition for water sources.
Some consumers focus more on taste and functionality. For example, the consumer base for original and fruit-flavored weak alkaline soda water has expanded rapidly in recent years. According to a report by Qianzhan Industry Research Institute, "China Soda Water Industry Market Development Prospects and Investment Forecast Analysis Report," the domestic soda water market was around 15 billion yuan in 2019 and is predicted to reach 32 billion yuan by 2025. This clearly shows that the soda water segment, with its health-oriented positioning and good balance in weak alkaline texture, also holds promising prospects.
In addition to taste requirements, the trend toward diversification in packaging specifications is also strengthening. With the diversification of consumption scenarios, the demand for convenient large-format (1.5L to 12L) single-use packaged drinking water is growing rapidly. Nongfu Spring, Ganten, and C'estbon have all targeted multi-scenario family life and launched large-packaged barrel water.
According to the differentiated needs of consumer groups in different scenarios, companies must offer water products in different packaging specifications to capture different consumer markets. For example, C'estbon has completed the layout of packaged water in multiple specifications: 350ml, 555ml, 1.18L, 1.555L, 2.08L, 4.5L, 6L, and 12.8L. Tsingtao Youjia's Nestlé Pure Life packaged water, targeting mid-to-high-end consumers, covers multiple specifications including 330mL, 550mL, 1.5L, 5L, and 5 gallons, to meet the water needs of adults, children, families, offices, and other scenarios.
In addition to satisfying the need for freshness, happiness, and fashion elements, in the post-pandemic era, **the new generation of main consumer groups is gradually shifting their needs toward health, and health-oriented consumption demand is becoming an important part of all diversified needs.**

**03 Winning the Youth Wins the World: Personalized Beverages Activate New Consumer Markets**
In this era, young people bring big business. If health is a rational need for consumers, then in the world of young people, this need is just one notable wave in the tide of their colorful personalized needs.
The increasingly diversified consumption scenarios have sparked young people's enthusiasm for exploring taste experiences. In the packaged water and beverage industry, the trend of personalized consumption is driving continuous product segmentation, even leading to a restructuring of the industry landscape. The "old three categories" of purified water, natural water, and mineral water have seen the entry of "catfish" products like soda water, electrolyte water, and sparkling water within a few years, increasing the overall market size and creating conditions for new brands to enter.
**From the current product portfolio of Tsingtao Youjia's Youhuojia beverages, personalized products targeting young consumer groups are an important guide for its product innovation.** Following hot mainstream category tracks, developing segmented features, prioritizing development for catering channels, and continuously cultivating differentiated categories with Tsingtao characteristics, with a research direction focused on natural, healthy, and marine fermentation, Tsingtao Youjia has successively launched Jiangxiaochang ginger sparkling water, Guoran Qipai soda sparkling water, hawthorn juice, barley tea, and Prince seaweed soda sparkling water, providing young consumers with new choices for dining, leisure, small gatherings, and beverage mixing.
Among them, Youhuojia barley tea leverages the R&D strength of the only national key laboratory in the beer industry, uses Tsingtao Brewery's century-old malting technology, and uses globally selected 100% Canadian imported two-row barley. It extracts the first wort of two-row barley and combines it with a unique golden ratio of cassia seed, making it a true "one barley" heritage of Tsingtao Brewery, allowing urban young people to enjoy the taste while cutting grease and relieving greasiness without burdening the stomach.
According to the 2021 National Economic and Social Development Statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics, China's per capita GDP exceeded $12,000 in 2021. Based on international experience, the shift from mass consumption to personalized consumption will become a major trend in national consumption during this period. The trend of personalized consumption across the population is irreversible, and the underlying logic of market growth has fundamentally changed compared to the past.
On the other hand, China's rapid urbanization and the population flow back from large cities to lower-tier cities have made previously highly concentrated trend consumption scenarios more widespread, opening up new blue oceans for the beverage and packaged water markets.
For example, of the more than 400 Wanda Plazas, half are located in third- and fourth-tier cities. The balanced distribution of large commercial complexes across the country has brought abundant life with leisure dining, bars, cinemas, and other elements, driving huge opportunities on the supply side. From the perspective of FMCG, this may be the best business opportunity in China in the next twenty years.
From addressing what is "healthy good water" to meeting consumers' diversified and personalized needs, Tsingtao Youjia is committed to building a **"ubiquitous packaged water + colorful near-water beverages + healthy beverages for joyful gatherings"** category portfolio to meet the new consumption demands brought by consumption upgrading and the iteration of consumer group structures.
