Winston-Salem, NC, Jan. 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sunshine Beverages, maker of better-for-you energy drinks and sparkling energy waters, has partnered with Inmar Intelligence, a data-driven technology-enabled services company, to help Sunshine reach a new type of energy drink consumer. Sunshine\u2019s \u201cFeel Good Energy\u201d beverages appeal to people who need energy but are not interested in traditional energy drinks, which are known for their excessive amounts of caffeine and other stimulants. Sunshine\u2019s products are gaining popularity with active, health-minded consumers, so they partnered with Inmar, another Winston Salem based company, to help continue the momentum.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur energy drinks are unique,\u201d said Beth Hathcock, Marketing Director at Sunshine. \u201cEach can contains vitamins and electrolytes but most importantly, Sunshine is not overloaded with caffeine. One 12 oz can contains only 70 mg of natural caffeine. That\u2019s no more than a cup of coffee!\u00a0 Consumers are looking for moderate caffeine levels and Sunshine offers that. The challenge is better understanding our consumers and that is where Inmar\u2019s expertise came in. Inmar\u2019s data identified our shopper and how we can effectively reach them\u201d.<\/p>\n

Inmar was able to leverage its wealth of consumer data to uncover insights into anticipated behaviors, attitudes and preferences of Sunshine and category shoppers.\u00a0\u201cIt has been our pleasure to partner with Sunshine Beverages to help the company better understand their shoppers,\u201d said Tim Clark, VP of Emerging Brands at Inmar Intelligence.\u00a0 \u201cIn identifying shifting shopper behaviors, Sunshine is not only able to effectively communicate with the right audiences but also pinpoint which retail outlets have the highest ROI for the company.\u00a0 Through this, Sunshine is driving incremental traffic to beverage aisles, thereby contributing to the growth of the overall category.\u00a0 Sunshine has incredible momentum in 2021, and we look forward to continued success together\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sunshine reported that sales almost doubled in 2020, indicating that the partnership with Inmar has already been helpful. \u201cIt was particularly good timing for a partnership with Inmar because we just launched in Publix and Harris Teeter,\u201d Hathcock said. \u201cWe want to make the most of each opportunity to reach our core shoppers in new markets.\u201d Sunshine\u2019s sales have grown in all their major retailers this year, particularly at Publix and Harris Teeter. Their e-commerce channel is also doing very well, growing by over 200% in 2020.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sunshine is currently in over 3,500 retail stores and that will continue to increase in 2021 when Sunshine will be made available in select Walmart and Wakefern stores.\u00a0 With Inmar\u2019s data-driven support continuing into the new year, Sunshine expects to continue its growth trajectory.\u00a0<\/p>\n
