Drinks distributor and manufacturer C&C Group has announced a distribution partnership with leading CBD drinks brand TRIP.

TRIP and C&C Group will distribute TRIP’s CBD products nationwide, catering to the growing demand amongst consumers for functional alcohol alternatives.

With the value of the UK CBD market estimated at £690 million in 2021 and expected to be £1 billion by 2025, the partnership signals to the pair’s investment into leading growth in the no and low category.

“Our new partnership with TRIP CBD is an exciting next step in increasing our range of no and low partners,” Clara Shand, commercial director at C&C Group, said.

“TRIP has revolutionised the low and no space as the leading CBD brand in Europe. Its stylish packaging and innovative marketing campaigns have led to fantastic growth in the UK, and we can’t wait to work together to drive distribution of TRIP.”

Olivia Ferdi, TRIP co-founder, said: “TRIP has proven success in the UK nationwide as an elevated and truly functional alcohol alternative. As the category leader with 89 per cent of the market share of UK CBD drinks, C&C is the natural partner to deepen our work in the on-trade, partnering with their best-in-class expertise and reach.

“Our mission has always been to share calm in the everyday chaos, with next-generation wellbeing products to power lifestyles.”

Irish Whiskey brand Jameson has been the English Football League's (EFL) main spirits sponsor for two seasons and is deeply entrenched in all aspects of the league, including player sponsorships. It has now signed up with Admiral to celebrate both brands' association with the beautiful game. They have worked closely together to create a full retro-inspired tracksuit in Jameson’s signature green, featuring key elements from Admiral’s world-famous designs for team performance wear, to create a slouchy royal green trackie ready prepped for pubs, presents, party games and freezing cold five-a-sides this Christmas.

“Jameson shares a history rich with the beautiful game, so teaming up with an iconic heritage brand like Admiral felt like a natural fit, with the results speaking for themselves,” said Josh McCarthy, Brand Director for Pernod Ricard UK. “A classic tracksuit, from two classic brands, to look sharp after the match when buying your mates a round of Jameson, Ginger and Lime. Nostalgia is everywhere at the moment and growing up in Leicester, there was no shortage of Admiral tops in the park and at the local football clubs.”
