Jones Soda is expanding into the cola category with Jones Craft Cola and Jones Craft Zero Cola in collaboration with Nitrocross. While Jones Craft Cola shares the natural sweetness of cane sugar, Jones Zero Cola, recognizes consumers' preferences for no-calorie beverages without flavor compromise.
These co-branded products are set to debut in early September 2024, kick-starting a multi-year Thrill One partnership between Jones Soda and Nitrocross. At the first Nitrocross race of the season in Richmond, Virginia, the products will make an appearance and they will be sold at other Nitrocross races and made available for purchase nationwide. "Partnering with Nitrocross is an ideal way to enter the cola wars. It will immediately raise the visibility of our products with a young generation of passionate fans who are open to new experiences of all kinds," said David Knight, CEO of Jones Soda.
