Waka Coffee & Tea Expands to Walmart Stores in Texas Amidst Growth in Instant Beverage Market
LOS ANGELES, June 21, 2024, (VSNewsNetwork.com) - Waka Coffee & Tea has announced that its products will now be available at Walmart stores across Texas. The initial launch will feature Waka’s instant tea line, with plans to introduce additional instant coffee products later in the year.
The expansion comes at a time of notable growth in the instant beverage market, driven by consumers' increasing preference for convenient and versatile products. Waka Coffee & Tea’s instant teas are designed for easy preparation of both hot and iced beverages. The products also cater to the rising trend of creating social media-worthy drinks, such as loaded teas and whipped coffees, which can be prepared at home.
The opportunity to expand into Walmart arose from the retailer's Open Call event, which invites entrepreneurs to present their U.S.-made products for potential inclusion in Walmart stores. Waka Coffee & Tea was selected from a large pool of applicants.
David Kovalevski, Founder and CEO of Waka Coffee & Tea, expressed his thoughts on the significance of this expansion: “At Waka, our goal is to provide affordable, delicious, and convenient beverage options while also prioritizing environmental responsibility. Waka's instant teas and coffees are an excellent match for Walmart’s customers, and the brand is leveraging its successful online presence to bring these products to a broader audience. At Waka, we believe in delivering great-tasting beverages that fit seamlessly into our consumers’ busy lives — all in an affordable way.”
Waka Coffee & Tea is also shows its dedication to sustainability through its "Add Water, Give Water" program, which supports global clean water initiatives. The company uses packaging made from post-consumer recycled materials as part of its commitment to reducing environmental impact.
