In today's dazzling bottled water market, consumers are faced with a variety of brands and choices, including 18 yuan of Cestbon, 135 yuan of Nongfu Spring and 9Wahaha at 9 yuan is undoubtedly the most common. However, the recent comment area has become a "spit conference" on the Nongfu Spring brand.
First of all, from the perspective of water quality type, Nongfu Spring focuses on mineral water, which contains a certain amount of natural mineral elements, while Cestbon focuses on pure water, which removes all impurities through multi-layer purification to ensure that the water quality is pure and free of additives. Wahaha's product line is more abundant, with both pure water and mineral water to meet the needs of different consumers.
As for the question of whether mineral water can cause stones, in fact, moderate intake of minerals is what the human body needs, but excessive intake of specific minerals may increase health risks, so drinking water should be moderate and varied.
Second, there are a variety of factors behind the differences. Due to its unique water source strategy and positioning of high-end products, the cost of some products includes additional costs such as long-distance transportation and packaging upgrades, such as strict production standards and shelf life requirements for baby water, which explains why its price is higher than other brands.
In contrast, Wahaha adheres to the pro-people route, relying on large-scale production and extensive channel sales to gain market share, despite the low profit margin per bottle. As a well-known brand in Guangdong, Cestbon may need to pay additional channel and marketing costs for inter-regional circulation, which is one of the reasons why it is higher than some similar products.
In addition, taste is also a factor that should not be overlooked. Some consumers reported that the red bottle of Nongfu spring water did not feel as expected, and some even thought that Cestbon tasted better. This involves factors such as the mineral content of the water, the pH level, and personal taste preferences, and it is impossible to generalize about which is better.
The main differences between Cestbon, Nongfu Spring and Wahaha are the type of water quality (purified or mineral), pricing strategy (cost, transportation, brand positioning, etc.), sales channel influence, and taste experience.
The discussion on social media reflects more consumers' judgment of brand behavior, especially the social repercussions caused by the launch of ** baby water for Nongfu Spring, highlighting that consumers are not only pursuing quality, but also paying attention to the cost performance of the product and its real utility. This "spit conference" is actually the public's depth of transparency and rationality in the drinking water industry.
