Las Vegas-based company strikes deal with one of the nation's largest consumer product marketers to spread more energy across the U.S. LAS VEGAS, Aug. 11
LAS VEGAS, Aug. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- ZizZazz energy mix's parent company,
Mainstream Ventures, Inc., announced today an agreement with Acosta, Inc.
(Acosta) to provide national distribution for its vitamin-based energy drink
mix. The Acosta team will work hand-in-hand with the marketing team at ZizZazz
to provide nationwide sales and marketing of its current product line.
"We're thrilled to work with the industry leader for the marketing and
distribution of our products. ZizZazz has amazing flavor, great packaging and
provides convenience for the customer as well as the retail outlets. The team
at Acosta shares in our vision and we look forward to a fruitful partnership,"
said ZizZazz President Amberly Quaintance.
Acosta, which handles more #1 and #2 brands than any other sales agency in
North America, is also the number one sales agent in reaching specialized
c-stores -- ZizZazz's main rollout target. Additionally, Acosta provides a
dedicated team focusing on major retailers in all key territories.
"Acosta's Convenience Store division is extremely excited to be working
with ZizZazz. It's rare in this channel to launch a new category and product
with the level of consumer marketing that this company has committed to. Our
entire team is buzzing as distribution successes are rolling in our very first
week! With ZizZazz being a new format in the Energy category and having so
much to offer retailers and consumers; these factors give us the confidence to
partner with the ZizZazz team and apply the necessary resources to be
successful," said Calvin Johnson, Acosta's director of sales planning.
This announcement comes just days following the endorsement notice of
multi-talented artist Nelly signing on as spokesperson for the energy mix
that's taking store shelves by storm.
The popularity of the drink continues to rise as ZizZazz provides a more
convenient and refreshing on-the-go option over the other counter-top sold
energy supplements. Loaded with energy-enhancing vitamins, this non-carbonated
blend comes in four fruit-based flavors, and when compared to other energy
beverages has less sugar, carbs, calories and sodium.

About ZizZazz
ZizZazz, which comes in four fruity flavors packaged conveniently in a
portable single-serving bag, has been making waves since it first hit retail
stands in the spring. Outselling other energy drinks and liquids, ZizZazz is
quickly becoming the energy mix of choice due to the "take anywhere"
convenience of the packaging for the customer, and the smaller amount of shelf
space needed for the retailer. ZizZazz gives all-day energy with no added
sugar, just 20 calories per serving and no crash that drinkers experience from
most other energy drinks as it's loaded with vitamins A, B1, B3, B5, B12, C
and E, as well as ginseng and green tea extracts.
