DOYLESTOWN, PA--(Marketwired - Apr 20, 2016) - Steaz, the nation's best-selling organic and fair trade green tea-based beverage company, announced today it has increased its distribution by adding a leading convenience store chain to their list of retailers beginning this April. The brand's popular line of iced green teas will launch in Sheetz stores, making Steaz now available in more than 1,500 convenience stores across the country.
"We are pleased that Steaz will now be available at Sheetz," said Steven Kessler, Co-Founder of Steaz. "It is exciting for any brand to experience this type of growth, and as a natural food brand, we attribute our expansion to the many health-conscious consumers who are growing the demand for higher quality, socially responsible options that still taste great at convenience store locations."
Steaz' iced green teas will be sold across all 525 Sheetz convenience store locations in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina and West Virginia.
"Here at Sheetz we've seen record growth in customer demand for healthy beverages as an alternative to sodas and other sugary drinks," said Ryan Sheetz, AVP of Brand Strategy at SHEETZ. "Steaz is a great product that we feel will help meet this demand and we are thrilled to be able to bring Steaz iced green teas into our locations."
This retail expansion follows on the heels of major brand expansions for the natural beverage company. Earlier this year, Steaz introduced two new flavor varieties to its iced green tea line, and just this month rolled out an entirely new product line featuring Cactus Water.
