Une eau tr s pr cieuse
Article Abstract:
Chateldon sparkling water sold 363,000 bottles in 1997, less than 1% of the turnover from the Castel group's mineral water branch. Louis XIV drank this water, the first mineral water operated in France, and it is now on the menu of prestigious restaurants where it is priced at FFr 35 per bottle. The Castel group appears to favour elitist production and distribution. The bottling plant operates only every other month, and the company does not plan to expand the distribution of this product, which at present is available only in very select restaurants and at the Nicolas wine and spirits merchant, which also belongs to the Castel group.

Coke hopes Dasani makes splash in U.S
Article Abstract:
Coca-Cola Co. said that it was planning to launch the Dasani still-water brand in North America during the first-half of 1999. The move represents Coca-Cola's entry into the bottled-water industry in the US. Dasani is the company's first domestic water brand. Coca-Cola said that it would sell Dasani in light-blue plastic bottles with 20 ounce, one liter, and 1.5 liter sizes. Sales of Dasani will probably begin in April 1999. The water will also be widely available on the market by late May 1999.
