Functional beverage brand PLAY MODE has announced that it will be expanding across the United States by launching at Bel Air, Nob Hill, and Raley's retailers.
When PLAY MODE's founder Michael Baeta created the company, he intended to develop a new beverage brand that was somewhere in between Fiji Water and Red Bull -- a thirst-quenching energy drink without the extra sugar and caffeine. Since launching, the brand has released three flavors: POWER PUNCH, PLAY FROSÉ, and BERRY BLITZER.
"We’ve all been there before and experienced severe dehydration. A bottle of water is nice, but it’s not an immediate cure. PLAY MODE eliminates the delay in replenishment and also eliminates 20 trips to the bathroom throughout the day and night,” said Baeta in reference to his brand's unique value proposition.
