“We have introduced a unique product which will come in handy for all the consumers who need an energy recharge at any time of the day and night,” he says. The energy drink comes with a fruity taste that is bound to give it an edge over other energy drinks in the market. It is also one of the first energy drinks which is available in PET, a premium and innovative packaging that is designed to reinforce the brand with a strong visual identity.

Over the recent few years, Bidco has been diversifying its product offering. The company’s main venture has been its entry in the beverages market. in 2016, the company started the construction of a mega Sh. 4 billion beverage plant in Thika.
