Tickle Water Lands Distribution Deal with Dora's Naturals Just In Time for the Holiday Shopping


Tickle Water Looks Forward to Increased Growth and Market Share Partnering with Leading Natural Food and Beverage Distributor

Tickle Water, an innovative, premium sparkling water company initially created specifically for kids, has landed a major distribution deal with Dora's Naturals, a leading natural food and beverage distributor.

Dora’s Naturals will introduce Tickle Water’s delicious and unique sparkling water lineup to over 4000 stores in the tri-state area and throughout the Northeastern US, which include high volume supermarkets, national drug and natural food chains, independent accounts and on-premise/food service locations.

“At heart, Dora’s is about growing innovative brands,” said Christopher Psuik, VP of Business Development, Dora's Naturals, “and that’s why we’re excited to add Tickle Water to our portfolio. They're a great addition.”

This year, Tickle Water has seen significant growth in product demand and an organic evolution of the brand’s adoption by millennials and adults as a zero calorie mixer for adult beverages and a healthy option for the on the go consumer. The company has recently increased its footprint in Natural supermarkets, premium grocery chains, wine and spirits stores, online retailers, and employee dining cafes. Being part of Dora’s Naturals large scale distribution and merchandising channels will be a sure fire way to boost sales and increase brand recognition.

Since its inception in 2016, Tickle Water has disrupted the flavored sparkling water segment by offering a healthy and enjoyable sipping option specifically for children that quite literally “tickles” their taste buds. Tickle Water’s Founder and CEO, Heather McDowell, wanted to get her son, Jayger, more interested in drinking water rather than sugar-laden juice boxes and sodas. Tickle Water is a naturally flavored sparkling water free of preservatives, GMOs, gluten, sodium, sugar, calories and artificial sweeteners. Additionally, all products are certified OU Kosher. The current lineup of all-natural flavors: Orange Mango, Green Apple, Watermelon, Grape, and Natural Sparkling Water are changing the beverage landscape with parents and children alike.

"We are delighted to be part of Dora's Naturals impressive line up of products and look forward to building our brand with these proven distribution channels. Their experience, reputation and proven track record in distributing natural products make them an ideal partner for us. We share the same mission to bring healthy beverage options to consumers and we look forward to making this a winning partnership." says Heather McDowell, CEO and Founder of Tickle Water.
