Royal Spring Water (fka RSPG)

Crystal Splash:

Crystal Splash (Sherman Oaks, California) has a Letter of Intent with RSPG.

The LOI is apparently in conjunction with Crystal Splash's hope to move eastward across the country, supplying school districts with "approved" water and flavored water. Some states and school districts are moving away from providing soda water to children, so this would seem to be an excellent emerging market for Crystal Splash (and RSPG).

The website of Crystal Splash says:

"Crystal Splash is fully compliant with California School Nutrition Laws and Regulations - some of the most comprehensive in the nation!"

But Crystal Splash is rated "Unacceptable by Nutrition Services" of the Los Angeles Unified School District: http://cafe-la.lausd.k12.ca.us/unapprovedbeverages.htm

I haven't found anything indicating that Crystal Splash is available anywhere, but being thousands of miles away from California, I am relying on net searching. I did find that they are, in fact, approved by the "State of California Nutrition Laws."

The Letter of Intent discloses (I think) that it is contingent upon Crystal Splash locating and retaining distributors of its products (eastward of California), which would be produced by RSPG at its Texas plant.

I requested clarification from Crystal Splash, but the response came from a programmed email from its mascot.

I don't think this has anything to do with the viability of RSPG to produce, provide and/or market water to school districts.
