CENTR Ranked #1 Selling CBD Beverage in the United States by Brightfield Research
Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – February 22, 2022) – CENTR Brands Corp. (CSE: CNTR) (FSE: 303) (OTCQB: CNTRF) (the “Company“), one of North America’s leading functional beverage companies, today announced that CENTR’s sparkling, low-calorie CBD beverages were ranked the #1 selling CBD beverages in the United States in the second half of 2021.
Brightfield Group, a leading provider of CBD market data, this month ranked CENTR as the top-selling US CBD beverage brand in H2 of 2021. According to Brightfield, both CENTR’s sales growth and the potential of the CBD beverage marketplace’s overall expansion were driven by a combination of:
- rising consumer demand for more healthy and functional beverages options,
- the expansion of supermarket, convenience store, and other retailer adoption upon anticipation of national approval of edible CBD products by the FDA, and
- increased consumer familiarization the CBD-infused products.
Brightfield forecasts that the CBD beverage marketplace will reach USD$1.3 billion in sales in 2026.
“This is a remarkable achievement for CENTR, given the overall growth of this highly competitive and dynamic new beverage category,” said CENTR CEO Joseph Meehan. “It’s clear to me that, beyond our strong and ongoing retail growth over the past year, CENTR’s #1 rank in sales also reflects CENTR and CENTR Sugar Free being delicious products with a compelling brand identity, all backed by an extraordinary sales team and distribution partnerships.” CENTR CFO David Young noted, “As we continue to expand our portfolio, most recently with CENTR Instant, the Company expects to continue to maintain our leading market position across our product portfolio.”
