Levy (SDIL)<br />
What’s happening<br />
In the Budget April 2016, the government proposed a new levy on soft drinks that<br />
contain added sugar. This levy applies to the production and importation of soft drinks<br />
containing added sugar. The proposals will be implemented in April <strong>2018</strong>.<br />
It’s purpose is to encourage consumers to change behaviour through a broader range<br />
of low sugar choices & RSP differentials.<br />
EFFECTIVE FROM 6 TH APRIL <strong>2018</strong><br />

The Levy Facts<br />
PASS ON THE LEVY<br />
What Licensee’s choose to do with<br />
price is at their discretion. One of<br />
the Levy’s objectives is to encourage<br />
consumers to consume a broader<br />
range of low and no sugar soft drinks.<br />
It is our recommendation that where<br />
the Levy is applied to a product, it<br />
should be passed on to the price the<br />
consumer pays but that’s up to you.<br />
REVIEW YOUR<br />
RANGE<br />
No and low sugar products should<br />
not mean a compromise on taste.<br />
Are you stocking a range of great<br />
tasting no and low sugar products?<br />
See below for must stocks.<br />
OFFER<br />
CHOICE<br />
Consumers will still demand added<br />
sugar soft drinks as a treat within<br />
their balanced diet and lifestyle.<br />
Continue to stock added sugar<br />
products but ensure your space and<br />
stock holding reflects the shift in<br />
consumer demand.<br />
The levy will be applied to drinks with added sugar. Dairy and Pure Juice drinks will be exempt.<br />
