Grocery Headquarters' 2017 Beverage Category Trailblazer Awards recognize innovation within the beverage category and are designed to honor those companies and organizations that have had the most impact on the supermarket industry this year in this important and growing segment. Grocery retailers have pointed out that the increasingly-diverse and complicated beverage segment remain a backbone of the grocery store, producing strong sales and profits for the retailers. But they quickly add that the category is rapidly changing and they need to stay on top of trends to keep their consumers happy. With the assistance of many grocery retailers across the country, Grocery Headquarters has pinpointed those manufacturers who are making a difference in the beverage category. The Trailblazer Award winners will be featured in a special editorial section of the May 2017 print issue of Grocery Headquarters and online at http://www.groceryheadquarters.com.

This year, our editorial team and our Retail Editorial Board has determined that AquaBall is a unique, healthy and tasty product that can help spur additional sales in the beverage category. It is products like these that can help retailers build more excitement in the beverage aisle and that will lead to greater sales and profits for all involved."
Jeff Culbertson, EVP of Sales for True Drinks, added, "We would like to thank Grocery Headquarters magazine for this recognition. Our entire team has worked tirelessly to collaborate with retailers to bring a truly healthy beverage for kids that will drive consumers back to the kids beverage aisle and drive innovation for retailers as they build out category management plans for 2017 and beyond.
