Shell Select Selects Beaver Natural Soda

Double D Beverage's line now available in brand's c-stores
CALGARY, Alberta -- Shell Canada Ltd. has picked up Double D Beverage Corp.'s new line of all-natural, micro-brewed sodas for its Shell Select convenience store locations in Canada. Effective this month, Beaver Natural Soda, Canadian Cola, Retro Root Beer and Saskatoon Berry will be available at Shell Canada from British Columbia to Ontario

"This is a strong validation for our Beaver Soda brand," said Double D Beverage co-president and CEO Richard DeBanks. "Planned positions in Shell are not easy to come by for independent companies."

The company said that it is launching [image-nocss] the Orange Cream flavor of Beaver Natural Soda soon.

Beaver Natural Soda does not use high-fructose corn syrup, the company said. Ingredients include cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, chicory root, coriander, clove, maple syrup, tangerine extract and orange extract.

The Latimer Lake, B.C.-based beverage company was founded in May 2005. It launched its first entry, Beaver Buzz Citrus Energy, in the summer of 2005. In 2007, it introduced the 355ml package to Canadian consumers. It also offers the Canadian BVR Buzz Energy beverage line in Core, Green Machine, Chronic, Berry, Citrus, Black Currant, Green Tea and Iced Tea varieties.
