OLIPOP PBC

We’re honored to share that OLIPOP PBC has been selected as a Finalist in the 2024 The Digital Health Hub Foundation - Digital Health Awards in the Emerging Innovation “Food as Medicine” category! Chosen from among thousands of innovative companies, this recognition speaks to our mission to set the standard for functional soda, positively impacting health at scale and driving accessibility. We believe that offering healthy beverage options beyond water is key to building highly engaging “Food as Medicine” solutions. As the only functional CPG company named a Finalist, we’re proud to stand out for this forward-thinking approach. Later this month, we’ll be at HLTH Inc. in Las Vegas, ready to connect with health systems, employers, and insurance companies to discuss how our “Beverage As Medicine” platform can drive meaningful health outcomes. We are truly honored to be amongst such change makers in the "Food As Medicine" space and look forward to sharing why we believe providing healthy functional beverages should be a complementary part of "Food As Medicine" solutions. #FoodAsMedicine #HLTH2024

We're always raising the bar for functional soda…and thanks to your feedback, we’ve been hard at work and are excited to unveil our latest breakthrough: shelf-stable OLIPOP! 🎉 As creators of the category, our mission has been to set the standard for functional soda, with the goal of positively impacting health at scale and driving accessibility. That commitment to our customers is something we have never taken lightly, and over the past six years, we’ve made incredible strides as a business. We’ve been carefully listening to customer feedback, and two key requests stood out:  1️⃣ A pantry-friendly, shelf-stable version of OLIPOP for those with limited fridge space.  2️⃣ A formula that allows you to enjoy more OLIPOP daily, similar to traditional soda, without the very high fiber content. After 18 months of R&D, we’re thrilled to announce our latest innovation—a shelf-stable OLIPOP that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere. Developed alongside our Scientific Advisory Board and rigorously tested at Purdue University, this new formula supports digestive health while maintaining the delicious taste you love. And, with 6 grams of fiber per can, our shelf stable recipe still meets the FDA requirement for an “excellent source of fiber.”   Check out our new multi-packs in six core flavors—Cherry Cola, Cream Soda, Strawberry Vanilla, Classic Grape, Lemon Lime, and Classic Root Beer—now available in select stores in the soda aisle! The original recipe—with 9 grams of fiber—is still available in the refrigerated sections of stores nationwide.
