Coconut Water Craze Moves from Beverage to Coffee Aisle
March 5, 2012 – New York, NY – Coco Café is now available at The Fresh Market, in over 100 locations of the specialty grocery retailer. Coco Café is a new ready-to-drink beverage of fresh coconut water and organic fair-trade espresso with milk – a natural and delicious alternative to bottled, cold coffee-drinks and every bit as refreshing as an iced coffee on a warm day.
Through The Fresh Market, Coco Café is now available in the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
“The Fresh Market consumer appreciates freshness, flavor and authenticity,” says Elan Eifer, the co-founder of Coco Café, “so our beverage is a perfect fit for their consumers’ mindset and lifestyle.”
Coco Café, started by friends Elan Eifer and Brian McCaslin on the beaches of Santa Monica, California in fall of 2011, is being touted as “the next breakout beverage.” While Coco Café supports the growing coconut water trend in U.S. groceries, it also expands coconut water’s reach: from the beverage aisle into the coffee aisle.
Says Eifer: “You’re choosing Coco Café first and foremost because you’re a bit of a coffee snob, and also happen to love fresh coconut water, but ultimately want a hydrating pick-me-up.”
