Spring Valley Juice

Created in 1955, Spring Valley Juice positioned itself as a premium juice brand and is available in 20 flavours. On 29 November 2000, Cadbury Schweppes acquired Spring Valley Juice, which has approximately a 27% share of Australian single serve juices in the "route" (convenience) segment.
