Coconut Water

-

The demand for pure coconut water without any preservati­ves has been in the pipeline for a while with extensive trials. The product was launched in 2018 and distribute­d to leading consumer outlets such as Cargills & Arpico Super Stores.

Low in calories, naturally free of fat and cholestero­l, more potassium than four bananas, and super hydrating -- these are just a few of the many benefits ascribed coconut water.

Dubbed “Mother Nature’s sports drink” by marketers, the demand is skyrocketi­ng, propelled by celebrity and athlete endorsemen­ts and promises to hydrate the body and help with a whole host of conditions, from hangovers to cancer and kidney stones.
