SAN DIEGO, CA March 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) Everybody already knows the big names: in the world of soda, PepsiCo and Coca-Cola dominate. But what about the little guys? Independent soda companies are working hard every day to get their products into supermarkets and specialty shops - and while it all starts with a good idea, a lot more than that goes into making it a success. In this month's issue of Food and Drink Digital, we talk to Reed's Inc. CEO Chris Reed to find out what it takes to make it in the independent soda business.
"Short of the big guys, who have so much horsepower and can launch a brand overnight, brands just take a lot of nurturing," says Reed. "It takes years before people discover you. You have to just say: 'OK, I'm in it for the very long haul, and I'm going to stick behind it hell or high water.' You have to be willing to believe in your product even when the marketplace doesn't."
