Hello! One larger regional/city bev. distributor can sell millions of cases of all their brands. Even tens of millions of cases. Most of the largest ones are beer, wine and soda houses. I sold @ Alaska Distributors before Columbia Distributors took us over in November 2008 in Seattle area..:

...here is a list of nations largest beverage distributors....they are not showing all the many pop brands that these Distributors also carry, only so much room, for example Columbia carries the entire 7up brands, talking rain, many teas and waters etc not shown below:

A hot niche brand any of these Distributors they could sell tens of thousands of cases in a year...even hundreds of thousands of cases.....and this is just one Distributor in one city USA.

At 7up of Detroit we sold 5 million cases in a year in mid-90's....and we were not anywhere near as big as the Coke, Pepsi or Budweiser Distributors there.

There are many, many many beverage Distributors around the nation of all sizes......even on a Top 100 list 7up of Detroit would prob not be on it......and we sold a ton of product still, with fleets of trucks, sales and merch team, etc...

IF Vitamin Fizz continues to take off.....then you are looking possibly at 150,000 cases sold just at one of the larger bev. Distributors above.....i dont think people outside these companies know how much of everything we drink as Americans.....

Always remember, if Sparkling ICE just hit $337 million in sales....whats that like 30 million cases of 12 packs, lol? So what MINE and Darin Ezra are trying to do is keep getting one new bev. Distributor after another.....trust me if it keeps doing great sales, these large Top 20 Distributors, or even Top 100 - will clamor for it. Yes, this all takes time....but this is how hundred million and even billion dollar brands are built. So Vitamin Fizz is on its way first to 100,000 cases...and we here @ MINE are still subpenny: gonna be an exciting end of 2014, and by all accounts 2015 could be The Year...
