i asked before if PYX will venture into CBD drinks
at this time, IMO, they just have e-iquids, vape/hemp oils
then this....
The Company's Global Specialty Products division, which includes the Company's investments in the e-liquids, industrial hemp and legal cannabis space, will continue to be led by Bryan Mazur. In this role, Mazur will oversee the new business lines, which will have requisite autonomy to drive innovation and continue to disrupt these fast-growing categories and diverse consumer markets.
who is/was Bryan Mazur
Alliance One International, Inc. (NYSE: AOI) today announced that Bryan Mazur has joined the Company as Executive Vice President, Global Specialty Products. In this new role, Mr. Mazur will be responsible for global business development and driving innovation and growth. Prior to joining AOI, Mr. Mazur served as Vice President and General Manager of Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, where he built and scaled multiple consumer-facing product brands over the course of 20 years.
then this article..
Keurig Dr. Pepper
Although absolutely no rumors have swirled around Keurig Dr. Pepper (NYSE:KDP), which was formed earlier this year from the merger of Dr. Pepper Snapple Group and Keurig Green Mountain, the maker of single-serve K-cups, I believe it could be the perfect beverage maker to turn to the green rush.
The merger of these two companies is expected to result in cost synergies and improve branding power (and thus pricing power) by giving it more shelf-space clout. But Keurig Dr. Pepper's second-quarter operating results weren't all that impressive. Keurig's sales were essentially flat, while Dr. Pepper Snapple Group saw operating income fall 3.5% as a result of ongoing inflationary pressures. Like Diageo and Coca-Cola, its business needs a spark.
What would make a pairing between Keurig Dr. Pepper and a cannabis company so unique is the company's lead position in the single-serving K-cup space. Even with a number of smaller single-serve, cannabis-focused pod companies popping up in recent years, Keurig would be able to use its deeper pockets and brand name to essentially wipe them off the map.
Secondarily, Keurig Dr. Pepper could also turn to pairing CBD with its well-known sparkling beverage lineup of 7UP, A&W Root Beer, and, of course, Dr. Pepper.
It's certainly not the first name that jumps off the list of big-name beverage companies looking for a cannabis partner, but it may wind up being the most logical.
So, can CBD drinks by PYX possible
