    From http://www.beverage-digest.com/pdf/Interbev2002.pdf:

    Cott Corp., Toronto, Canada. Large private label CSD producer has big booth in center of display floor. Literature handed out features recently-acquired RC International brands. Revives RC Draft Cola and Kick brands for non-US markets. Also renames Nehi "Royal Crown Flavors." Cadbury owns RC brands in US; sold international and concentrate units to Cott last year.
    "Non-US markets," too bad.

    At least Australia won't be the only maker of RC Draft anymore. Being made in Canada means that it'll be easier to get here in the States.

    Is Nehi available on a large scale in the US? I know it is available in some areas, but I can honestly say I haven't see it anywhere in the Mid-Atlantic.

    Fusion, I have seen Nehi around the Roanoke, VA area. Once upon a time, Blackstone, VA had a nice supply of Nehi, but I haven't been to Blackstone in over 10 years. I also saw Nehi in the 7-11 stores in the Norfolk, VA area a few years ago.

    lilguy... Davis Beverages in PA (A DPSU bottler) has these cool fronts for their machines. it's like one of those "motion" trading cards. One way it's an A&W bottle, another it's Sunkist, and 3rd I think is 7-Up. Davis is really big on venders, as compared to the other DPSU bottlers around here who don't seem to care about them at all.

    But with Canada's laws against adding caffeine to citrus drinks, will Canadian Kick have any caffeine? And if not, why call it 'Kick'?
