Prebiotic Soda Brand Thrives in The Pipeline
Soda Flavors
Developed in The Pipeline
From Small Garage Launch
The Pipeline partnered with a prebiotic soda client from the get-go. Our collaboration started as a mix of enthusiastic self-formulators and The Pipeline offering formulating support.
As their portfolio and company grew, we shifted to match their needs. We supported strategy with insights-based flavors and SKU launches. The Pipeline acted as their single point of brand truth for new team members. We stayed by their side, guiding them with regulatory considerations and education to mitigate any issues all along the way.
The biggest key to success with our partnership is how we adapted with them as they grew—continuously meeting them where they were and supporting them in where they wanted to go next.
Our partnership continued through their successful acquisition and still thrives today.
