The Fancy Food and All Things Organic shows held at Chicago
from April 26-29 brought together about 800 exhibitors, with about 30 hawking
beverages.
Clearly in the minority, and presenting shortly after one Natural
Products Expo West, beverage brands still offered some fresh news: Adina World
Beat Beverages announced a $6.6 million investment from parties including
Sherbrooke Capital; Honest Tea introduced five new SKUs including Jasmine Green
Energy Tea; Apple Rush showed off mock-ups of their planned new slim-can
packaging, and Zota Soda unveiled mock-ups of their new bottles and four-packs.
