Exhibit 99.1
The Alkaline Water Company Announces Co-Packing Agreement with Sang Beverages for TEN Alkaline Spring Water
SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA – April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Alkaline Water Company, Inc. (OTC: WTER -- hereinafter referred to as the "Company"), a leader in the beverage industry known for its purified alkaline water, enhanced with Himalayan rock salt, today announced it has entered into a co-packing agreement with Sang Beverages, LLC to produce TEN Alkaline Spring Water, a premium 10 pH spring water product.
This follows the Company's strategic equipment acquisition completed on April 22, 2025, which has significantly strengthened its production infrastructure. Under the agreement, The Alkaline Water Company will produce TEN Alkaline Spring Water.
Strategic Complementary Brands
"We are thrilled to announce this co-packing agreement with Sang Beverages for their premium TEN Alkaline Spring Water," stated Ricky Wright, CEO of The Alkaline Water Company. "This agreement is particularly timely following our recent equipment acquisition. With control over our own production lines for the first time in our company's history, we're now able to offer co-packing services that benefit from our enhanced manufacturing infrastructure while maintaining our premium quality standards."
The co-packing agreement is the first step in what both companies hope will be a broader strategic relationship.
Market-Leading Products
TEN Alkaline Spring Water has established itself as a leading high pH brand in the United States. The product's unique selling proposition includes not only its market-leading 10 pH level but also its natural spring sources, providing naturally occurring minerals and electrolytes.
Jose A. Fernandez, Managing Principal of Sang Beverages, added, "We're excited to work with The Alkaline Water Company to produce our TEN Alkaline Spring Water. Their recent manufacturing enhancements make them an ideal co-packing partner in the southwestern United States as we aggressively expand our presence in western markets. Looking ahead, we see tremendous potential to deepen our relationship with these complementary products. Our 'Never from a Tap. Always a perfect TEN' spring water alongside Alkaline88's 'Deliciously Smooth' purified water creates a complete alkaline water solution for retailers and consumers alike."
The initial term of the agreement is for five years, with provisions for automatic renewal for additional one-year terms thereafter.
