Elev8 Brands acquired the newly formed L&P Cold Brew to launch its new cold brew product line and to make it a more versatile company adding additional revenue through vertical markets.

"We have had tremendous success with our Blessed Bean Coffee company and have been eager to expand our business into the cold brew sector”, stated Robie Leavitt, Managing Member of Blessed Bean Coffee, "Working with the Elev8 team has given us the ability to open up a new division of our already profitable business to provide cold brew to our existing customers as well as the ability to create new customers from this high demand market of ready to go coffee drinks.”

According to a report by Grand View Research, Inc. the global ready to drink tea and coffee market size is expected to reach 116.13 billion USD by 2024. US Sales alone in 2017 were over $38.1 million which is up over 460% from 2015.

Ryan Medico, CEO of Elev8 Brands, Inc. stated, "As we see the market for ready to go coffee and tea drastically increasing, we must jump on the opportunity to develop our own cold brew coffee.
