FOOD & DRINK
Bringing real flavour to the table - OTC BEVERAGES -
My brand of non alcoholic beverages was born as idea in 2017 , when I attended my fathers birthday party . I felt there was a gap to be filled as the drinks tasted good , were made with minimal ingredients and had benefits associated with drinking them . I wanted to take the same products and elevate them . Create the same recipes with quality ingredients , refreshing taste and wrapped in packaging that had a premium look and feel . I realised early on that I did not want to just create a drink , I wanted to create a Brand . A brand that could make a difference and leave a legacy for my children and my nephew . I researched a manufacturer , did a course on Public food Health and passed the exam . Within three months of launching , we were shortlisted for the best drinks category at the Food Matters Event in Excel : in 2020 , we were shortlisted in the Fruit Juices and Mixers category , in 2021 , E2 Media Food & Beverages award and I won international Business Woman ’ s of the Year Award 2022 .
In addition to the above , we have been included in the Mah Rainey Movie and MoBo celeb Xmas hampers in 2020 .
In 2022 , we attended the NOPE Event in Excel London , an event we had waited to attend for 2 years . It was a great success for us , as we were finalists in our category , Best organic Drink . the following morning one of the judges visited the stand to congratulate us on creating a great drink .
In the midst of the pandemic we launched our new flavour , Butterfly Pea Flower with Juice . The new flavour was well received and we entered the product in the Great British Food awards . The judges give a high mark of 15 as an assessment , our new flavour scored
12 / 15 , which is a great watermark that confirms we are doing the right thing with our product development .
In 2021 , we worked with an up and coming Director on a movie called ‘ On the Other Foot ” our beverages were used as product placement in the movie and we were recognised in the credits as a partner . We will be working with the same director on his next movie which is being filmed right now . We are so excited about these partnerships . WE have a number of events coming up in the year , one of which is us being a partner of the St James House Group Platinum Jubilee Celebrations - Strive for Perfection - with the Rolls Royce Enthusiasts Club . OTC will be featured in a commemerative book that will be issued to all the owners of Rolls Royce and Bentley ’ along with all of the showrooms . We have achieved a lot in the 5 years that we have been in business and we are looking forward to gaining more customers and becoming a household brand .
Thank you for your support , as we could not do this without you .
