UPG Adopts Sports Pouch Beverage Containers
The company specialises in the blending and bottling of enhanced water and beverage lines.
Gil Arvizu, CEO, Sports Pouch Beverage Company Inc., announced that United Packaging Group LLC (UPG), one of the leading water and beverage bottling plants, will offer the unique Sports Pouch Beverage patent pending packaging technology to their home delivery, institutional and retail customer base.
Based in Colton, California, UPG specialises in the blending and bottling of enhanced water and beverage lines. The patent pending, one of a kind Sports Pouch beverage packaging system utilises a flexible light-weight pouch, combined with an easy to use, re-sealable, pull-push spout that is environmentally friendly; making it one of the most cost efficient packaging and distribution systems in the marketplace.
Commenting Arvizu stated, `Over the past few months we have made tremendous progress to the enhancement of our product, through not only the development of a tamper proof safety seal that ensures the integrity of our product, but also through the formation of a number of extremely beneficial and strategic alliances in the beverage industry. Our relationship with UPG is a major opportunity for Sports Pouch Beverages. The company's beverage lines and packaging systems are second to none, and the addition of the Sports Pouch to their packaging portfolio should prove to be a mutually beneficial and profitable alliance.`
Arvizu added, `Our joint venture with UPG reinforces that our proprietary packaging has great marketability, not only because of its innovative practical design, but because it represents significant cost savings in the single serve aseptic juice/drink sector. At a time when the industry is experiencing increased distribution costs due to rising gas prices; our already cost effective light-weight packaging system now adds even greater value and cost savings.` Arvizu confirmed that due to increased market penetration for the Sports Pouch packaging system, the company has ordered another pouching machine for the fulfillment of expected volume.
