OLIPOP PBC

Happy first day of fall to all who celebrate! 🍂 If you can’t tell... we’re big fall fans.  This year feels especially fitting as we welcome our newest limited-edition flavor, Caramel Apple, joining a lineup that already features Crisp Apple, one of our most beloved fall favorites. While both bring the apple love, they each take that flavor in completely different directions:  🍎 Crisp Apple: bright, refreshing, and crisp to the core  🍏 Caramel Apple: rich, decadent, and drippin’ in candy-apple nostalgia   We love taking familiar flavors and bringing them to life in unexpected ways. And when it comes to fall, one apple expression just wasn't enough. We wanted to capture both sides of the season: the crisp simplicity of a freshly picked apple and the sweet nostalgia of a caramel apple from the fall fair. Together? Our ideal interpretation of fall and the many moments that make the season special.  Are you Team Crisp Apple, Team Caramel Apple, or Team Give-Me-All-The-Apples?  

Caramel Apple has officially arrived as the newest limited-edition addition to the OLIPOP lineup 🍏 When we set out to create this flavor, we weren’t interested in making a subtle nod to fall. We wanted the full caramel apple experience: crisp green apple, rich caramel flavor, and all the nostalgia of wandering through a fall festival with sticky fingers and zero regrets. The result is a flavor that’s sweet, tart, smooth, and drippin’ in delicious. And yes, the caramel is absolutely taking over.  Creating seasonal flavors gives us a chance to bottle up the feeling of a season, and few flavors capture fall quite like caramel and apple. Seeing the excitement from our community, alongside the buzz surrounding the launch, has made this one even sweeter. We’ll just say this: if fall has an official soda, we’d like to submit our application 😉 Caramel Apple is available now on drinkolipop.com and in stores everywhere.

Every chapter at OLIPOP has been shaped by the people who believe in what we're building—from our team and partners to the millions of people who've made OLIPOP part of their everyday lives. Today, we're excited to share another incredible milestone in our journey. We're thrilled to welcome Christian Patiño Webb as our new Chief Executive Officer! As OLIPOP continues to grow in scale, complexity, and reach, we’re evolving our leadership structure to support our next stage of growth while preserving the founder-led vision, mission, and culture that has defined our business since inception. The appointment of Christian as CEO marks an important moment in this evolution, adding operational depth and leadership experience to help advance our company’s long-term vision. In his role as CEO, Christian will oversee business operations, distribution, organizational execution, brand expansion, and strategic growth initiatives that support OLIPOP’s long-term vision. He brings extensive experience scaling high-growth consumer brands, strengthening organizational capabilities, and helping founder-led businesses navigate their next stage of growth by building the operational infrastructure required for long-term success. This transition also marks an exciting new chapter for our Founder, Ben Goodwin, as he steps into the role of Executive Chairman and Head of Innovation. In this new role, he'll continue shaping our long-term vision, driving breakthrough innovation, and helping define what's next for OLIPOP and the category we've created. Working in close partnership, Ben will help guide business strategy, ensuring the company continues to build on the vision that created the functional soda category, while Christian brings the leadership expertise needed to expand its impact on consumers.    This is an exciting new chapter for OLIPOP, but what drives us hasn’t changed. Our mission remains the same, and we’re more energized than ever about what’s ahead. Please join us in welcoming Christian to the OLIPOP family! 

From Miami to LA, we took “The feel good soda” on the road (and, in at least one case, out to sea 🚢). Over the past few months, we brought OOH to life through murals, trucks, billboards, digital boards, and other larger-than-life placements designed to make people stop, smile, and take a second look. And yes, that included a boat billboard that proudly proclaimed: "Holy Ship! There's fiber in that soda?!?" Did you catch us out in the wild this summer? 👀 If so, which one caught your eye??

We’re excited to announce a new milestone for OLIPOP and functional soda research: our pilot human clinical trial that investigated how swapping traditional soda with OLIPOP Vintage Cola is now published in the peer-reviewed journal Food and Humanity! 🔬    In 2024, we conducted a real-world evidence at-home human clinical pilot study to investigate how swapping traditional soda with OLIPOP Vintage Cola may contribute to better blood sugar outcomes. The findings showed that healthy adults without diabetes who consumed OLIPOP Vintage Cola experienced a better-for-you blood sugar response compared to a leading traditional cola.     We're proud to share that this study has now been published in the peer-reviewed journal Food and Humanity. Peer review can take time, but it’s an important part of the scientific process, with independent experts evaluating a study's methodology, analysis, and conclusions before publication.    For us, this publication is another step forward in our mission to set a higher standard for functional soda through rigorous research, transparency, and a continued commitment to consumer health.     ➡️ Check out the published study in Food and Humanity: https://lnkd.in/gXkX3C8F

Raise your paw if you love OLIPOP. 🐾🥤 We’re excited to announce our latest collaboration with The Foggy Dog, a partnership that’s sure to get your tail wagging. Together, we’ve created a limited-edition collection of dog accessories and toys inspired by some of our most-loved flavors, including Cream Soda, Crisp Apple, Strawberry Vanilla, Classic Grape, and Classic Root Beer. From flavor-inspired bandanas and collars to can toys, this collection is designed for the OLI-pups in our community. At OLIPOP, we believe that feeling good extends beyond what’s in your fridge. It’s about creating joyful moments, building community, and bringing the people (and pets) you love along for the ride. This collaboration gave us a playful way to bring “The feel good soda” world beyond the can and into a whole new category. Huge thanks to The Foggy Dog team for helping us create something unexpected, delightful, and worthy of every good pup. 🐶   👉 Check out the collab & treat your pup: https://lnkd.in/gXeCmnkZ

As we launch our new brand platform, “The feel good soda,” we’ve been thinking a lot about what it really means to feel good on the inside, and all the different ways that can show up in our lives. One of the simplest, and most important, ways is taking care of your health.   We also know how easy it is to put preventive care on the back burner. Appointments like checkups, screenings, or nutrition visits often get delayed or skipped entirely. In fact, data shows that 90% of Americans delay preventive screenings, with nearly half citing work as the main barrier. At OLIPOP, our mission is to positively impact human health at scale—and that includes our own team. That’s why we’re introducing our first OLI-Care Day. Today, every OLIPOP employee will take a dedicated, company-wide day off to focus on preventive care, without questions, approvals, or tradeoffs. Last year, programs like our OLI-CATION Summer Recharge Program reminded us how powerful it can be to create real space for rest. OLI-Care Day builds on that idea, making space for something just as important: long-term health. Because if we’re going to talk about helping people feel good, we believe it should start with how we show up for our own team. 

What happens when you challenge the idea that soda has to stay the same? For years, our Co-Founder, CEO, and Formulator, Ben Goodwin, has been exploring a simple but ambitious belief: that one of the world’s most beloved beverages could evolve into something more functional, more intentional, and better aligned with how people want to feel today. That vision helped spark OLIPOP, and it’s why we were honored to see Ben take the stage at The Wall Street Journal Global Food Forum alongside an incredible group of leaders shaping the future of food, health, and agriculture. In his session, “The Market for Prebiotic Soda Is Bubbling, OLIPOP Is on Top,” 🫧 Ben shared insights from OLIPOP’s journey—from early formulation and category creation to scaling a brand that’s helping redefine what modern soda can be. The conversation also explored the opportunities and challenges that come with balancing innovation, growth, and impact. A special thank you to Ben Cohen for leading such a thoughtful and engaging discussion, and to The Wall Street Journal team for creating a forum that brings together important conversations about the future of our food system.  We're grateful to be part of this dialogue and excited for what’s ahead. ➡️ Tune in to Ben's session here - https://lnkd.in/g7Z429TH

Our fan-favorite Shirley Temple just landed the #1 spot in Good Housekeeping’s 2026 Snack Awards “Best Prebiotic Soda” category! 🎊🍒 One of our most requested flavors ever, Shirley Temple is proof that when your community asks, you listen. And clearly... they were onto something.  Inspired by the nostalgic charm of your first “fancy” drink, our take on the original mocktail blends smooth vanilla, bright citrus, and a cherry finish for a modern twist on a timeless classic. And now Shirley Temple’s earned a spot among the year’s top-tested beverages, handpicked by registered dietitians, culinary pros, and thousands of real-life taste testers. We’re so grateful to the team at Good Housekeeping for the recognition; it’s an honor to be included among such standout sips. 💛 Check us out in the article here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gdcXpPNP
