Soda Pop Organics Inc. Case Study

Unlike its predecessors that are over 100 years old, Soda Pop Organics Inc. is a relatively young company in the soft drink industry. Established in 2001 as a local produce stand, Soda Pop Organics, Inc. quickly evolved into a self-sustaining cyclical co-op that reinvented the soft drink industry, by providing healthy plant based soft drinks with ingredients derived from sustainable farming activities. Local farmers would equally share in the production, bottling costs and revenue of the then small soft drink company. The revenue received by the farmers would be reinvested in additional land, sustainable farming equipment or other local farms. The cycle continued and has exploded into a profitable and competitive soft drink company with over
currently sales and distributes various soft drinks such as fruit soft drinks, herb and flower soft drinks, tea infused soft drinks, and soda water soft drinks. They also sale and distribute flavored waters and teas including weight management water, energy water, sleep time water, vitamin water, sweet flower water, Black tea, lavender bloom tea, oolong honeysuckle tea, white tea, orange tea and green tea cinnamon.
While Soda Pop Organics, Inc. strives to offer healthy, plant based soft drink products, their mission far exceeds their product and positively impacts the community and environment through their dedication and desire to invest in family owned, sustainable farms throughout the world.
