AeroDesigns has established distribution partnerships with the region's leading distributors, including J Polep, Core-Mark, Great State Beverages, Blue Coast Beverages and Pine State Trading Co. AeroShot Energy is now available in several thousand stores across the region, including 7 Eleven, Verc, Xtra Mart, Champlain Farms, Tedeschi's Food Shops, Henny Penny, L.E. Belcher and Alliance Stores.

AeroShot's patented air-based delivery system is specially designed to deliver a quick boost of energy that starts working right away – anytime, anyplace. AeroShot Energy is available in three delicious flavors – lime, green apple, and raspberry.  Containing the same amount of caffeine as a large cup of coffee, AeroShot delivers just the energy people want with no calories, no liquids, and no mystery ingredients. 

"We are proud to be working with a world class team of distributors and retail partners throughout New England," says Tom Hadfield, CEO of AeroDesigns, Inc.  "We are today launching a major marketing effort in the northeast, including print advertisements, radio spots, billboards, sampling teams, and online promotions."

After raising $13.5 million financing in the past 12 months, led by Polaris Venture Partners and Flagship Ventures, AeroDesigns recently appointed global communications & public relations agency Cohn & Wolfe and independent advertising and branding agency, Mechanica, as its agencies of record.

"Cohn & Wolfe is thrilled to help take the AeroShot Energy brand to the next level," said John Hollywood, Chief Strategy Officer of Cohn & Wolfe.  "This is a brand story steeped in true innovation and a relevant, one-of-a-kind product that can carve its own path in a cluttered category."
