Kona Gold Beverage, Inc’s Ooh La Lemin Lemonades to be Sold in Walmart Stores

Melbourne, FL, March 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kona Gold Beverage, Inc. (OTCQB: KGKG), a holding company focused on product development in the better-for-you and hemp and CBD functional beverage sector, is pleased to announce its popular Ooh La Lemin Lemonades will be sold in Walmart brick and mortar stores. The Company’s 16 oz Ooh La Lemin Lemonades, available in 4 flavors, will be included in modular sets in all stores with 12 ft or wider coolers in select states starting in June of 2022. The Company will announce which states at a later date as it gets closer to launch.  The 4 flavors of Ooh La Lemin will be in Walmart’s system nationwide, which will give the Company fire power to secure distribution in states where it’s currently lacking.

This is a huge step forward for Kona Gold Beverage as the Company focuses on taking its brand portfolio nationally.  The Company’s Ooh La Lemin Lemonades are currently sold in popular chains such as Wawa, Plaid Pantry, Piggly Wiggly, Coborn’s, Hyvee, and others.  The Company is currently in talks with several other national retailors to carry its Ooh La Lemin Lemonades, and will update shareholders as those come to fruition.

“I am very excited to be announcing to our shareholders that our Ooh La Lemin Lemonades will be available in Walmart stores around the country starting in June,” stated Robert Clark, CEO of Kona Gold Beverage, Inc. “This is a huge step for Kona Gold Beverage and a testament to how hard our team has been working in building our brands.  Our Ooh La Lemin Lemonades will be available at Walmart locations where we currently have full state distribution and states where we are bringing on new distribution partners for this roll out.”

Clark added, “In most instances, when working to sign new tier 1 distribution partners, they require your brand to be authorized in one or more large chains and this now gives us the fire power to approach new distribution partners in states we currently do not have distribution.”

In addition to this announcement, Kona Gold Beverage has hit or exceeded its monthly revenue projections for the first two months of 2022 and will be sharing February numbers with shareholders in the coming days.  The Company has set 2022 revenue projections at $8-$10 million.
