  • Supported by Canada’s largest chain of retail grocery stores, carrying three flavours of superfood smoothie pucks at its Canadian stores nationwide and expanding throughout the year to Western Canada.

  • Enhanced marketing strategy, with a full digital exposure on social channels and celebrity partnerships.
  • Maintained broker and distribution agreements to support continued Canadian retail sales.

2022 was our strongest year to date with record setting revenue for the Company.

We expect to continue to scale up growth throughout 2023 with our plans for increased US expansion,” stated Chelsie Hodge, the Company’s CEO and Founder.
