The transatlantic market viability of bottled water unleashed a corporate stampede to conquer the potentially enormous consumer market. By the late 1990s, a fetishized commodity had come of age in the industrialized world. In glass and plastic, gallons and liters, bottles of water streamed across the Atlantic, found new niches in big-box grocery stores and corner markets, dazzled diners on the menus of elite restaurants, and quenched the thirst of high-expenditure guests at fine hotels. 1 It steadily grew into a luxury commodity for European elites. Let’s consider the birth of a fetishized commodity: bottled water.īottled water first emerged in the crystalline waters of the French Alps, born sparkling and still to the proud parents of Perrier and Evian.
