Radnor soft drink

Radnor Hills is a prominent British beverage company that specializes in mineral water, fruit juices, and school-compliant soft drinks. Founded on the family farm in Powys, Wales, the brand has grown from a local water supplier into a major national player in the refreshment industry, known for its focus on sustainability and rural employment.

The history of Radnor begins in 1990 when William Watkins returned to his family farm to diversify their operations. He discovered a pure water source beneath the land and began bottling it under the Radnor Hills label. Over the decades, the company expanded its portfolio to include brands like Radnor Splash and Radnor Fizz, which are widely distributed in supermarkets and educational institutions across the UK.

Today, Radnor Hills remains based in the Welsh countryside. In late 2023, the brand was acquired by the British beverage group Purity Soft Drinks, which itself is backed by investment through ECI Partners. This acquisition was aimed at consolidating their position in the UK soft drinks market while maintaining the production excellence and sustainable practices associated with the Radnor source.
