Koios Announces Purchasing Agreement with Retail Giant GNC
Koios Beverage Corp. (CSE: KBEV; OTC: KBEVF) (the “Company” or “Koios“), is pleased to announce it has received its first purchase order with GNC Holdings, Inc. (GNC), a leading global health and wellness brand with thousands of retail stores across the US and Canada .
It is the largest single order for product that Koios has received in its corporate history.
The order is for Koios’s four most popular flavours – Apricot Vanilla, Berry Genius, Peach Mango, and Pear Guava. The beverages will be available for purchase initially in approximately 2,700 GNC retail stores in the US.
Pittsburgh -based GNC has more than 6,400 retail locations throughout the United States and Canada and franchise operations in approximately 50 international markets. GNC Canada is based in Mississauga, Ontario and operates as a subsidiary of GNC.
“The response to our new product lines at a regional level has exceeded our forecasts and expectations,” said Koios CEO Chris Miller . “Demand across the US has grown exponentially and our new national roll out with GNC will allow us to serve our ever-growing consumer base.
“The alignment with GNC is a perfect fit for Koios,” Miller added. “GNC is the gold standard when it comes to being a well-known, go-to source for health, wellness and sports nutrition products.”
Koios is an emerging player in the functional beverages industry. It has developed a proprietary blend of nootropics and natural organic compounds to help enhance a person’s ability to focus and concentrate.
“Securing a partnership with one of the leading nutritional retailers in the world quickly validates our product and increases the demand in the market place for products such as ours,” Miller said.
GNC sets the standard in the nutritional supplement industry—demanding truth in labeling, ingredient safety and product potency, all while remaining on the cutting-edge of nutritional science. As the company has grown over the years, so has its commitment to living well.
Koios is expected to be available in GNC stores before the end of Q1, 2019.
