FARMINGTON, Maine, Oct. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- JOCKO GO energy drinks are now available state-wide in Florida Wawa locations. Known for their dedication to real energy with natural ingredients, Jocko Fuel brings a new and loyal customer base to the iconic convenience store chain.
"When we talked about the perfect scenario for bringing JOCKO GO to market in convenience, there was one name that we all agreed upon, Wawa," said Pete Roberts, Origin Founder and CEO. "To be able to work with Wawa was a long-time dream of ours and not something we thought would happen so quickly, so we're putting everything we have into solidifying this relationship long-term."
Launching in the Florida market is a strategic move that Co-founder, Jocko Willink, sees as the next step to creating a shift in the energy drink industry. "We're coming in to shake things up a bit, and to show people that we can demand a better alternative," explained Willink, a decorated retired U.S. Navy SEAL Officer, multiple #1 New York Times bestselling author, and top podcast host. "You don't need to over-caffeinate, you can have a healthy energy drink, and we are bringing this better option to every Wawa in Florida so you can make a healthier choice to fuel your life."
More than two hundred Wawa stores in Florida now stock the four most popular flavors of the JOCKO GO ready-to-drink cans, including Dak Savage cherry vanilla flavor, named after Medal of Honor Recipient, Dakota Meyer; the signature Jocko Pom'r sweet tea and lemonade flavor; the Tropic Thunder pineapple coconut flavor; and the most recent addition, Sour Apple Sniper, named after J.P. Dinnell, a former sniper from Jocko's famed Task Unit Bruiser in the Battle of Ramadi, Iraq. By the end of this year, JOCKO GO will also release Afterburner Orange, named after retired U.S. Marine Corps officer and former TOPGUN Instructor Pilot, Dave Burke, and Whoop A$$ Watermelon, named after Travis Mills, Retired 82nd Airborne and Founder of Travis Mills Foundation, which supports veterans and amputees.
"Not many companies have the opportunity to work with such a powerful team, and we're proud to now bring that team to Wawa in a partnership for continued and exponential growth," said Roberts. "Once we prove successful in the big energy drink and fitness territory in Florida, we plan to go nationwide in convenience."
