Initial Target Market: Energy

Product: Fusion 6+ Hour Energy Boost

According to the Beverage Marketing Corporation (2007), the market for energy drinks in 2006 exceeded $2.5 billion, which represented a 516% gain from 2000.  (The category grew an additional 9% in 2008.)  New product introductions have numbered in the hundreds, accounted for a significant percentage of the sales growth.  The principal marketing channels in 2006 were convenience/gasoline stores (35.7%), mass merchandisers (16.5%), and supermarkets (11.3%), with most of the growth occurring in mass merchandiser and supermarket channels.

Energy "Shots" have been particularly successful since their launch in 2004, rapidly growing to 11.7% of total energy drink spending.  Benefits include convenient portability (small size), less carbohydrates and sugar than full-sized drinks, added vitamins and minerals, easy consumption of the small volume of liquid (two ounces), and no need for refrigeration.  Retailers enjoy the small footprint of the marketing cubes, high margins, and rapid inventory turns.  The small footprint allows retailers to merchandise the shots in high-impulse locations.

The significance of being one of the first brands to market cannot be overlooked. Energy Drinks began their popularity with products like Red Bull in the late 1980’s.  Although there are over 600 energy drinks on the market today, it is estimated that Red Bull sold over 5 Billion units in 2007.  The concentrated 2 ounce energy shot drink began approximately 3 years ago with about 30 brands in the category today; the first, ‘5 Hour Energy’ is expected to have had sales of well in excess of $100 million for 2007.  Bond launched its Fusion 6+ Hour Energy Boost at the National Association of Convenience Stores in November of 2007 where it was voted Best Taste.

Fusion 6+ Hour Energy Boost Product Features:

  • 3X  the kick of the typical canned energy drink in a small 2oz. bottle!
  • Metabolizes faster than canned energy drink
  • Zero carbs, Zero grams of sugar, only 8 calories per serving
  • No crash- as associated with all sugar based energy drinks
  • The strongest / longest lasting energy shot available on the market
  • Voted the #1 tasting energy shot in the category at the 2007 NACS Show!
  • Available in Berry and Limon

Retailers have found that the energy shot product category is #1 in both dollar sales at the front-end checkout and in dollar sales per square inch of display space.  The Fusion 6+Hour Energy Boost was first shipped to customers in January of 2008 and was No.7 in the category by the end of its first year on the market.  (Source: A.C. Nielsen, Nov 2008).  A 6-piece counter display for Fusion® is 12.75 square inches, and a 12-piece counter display is 25.9 square inches).  Fusion® also has an attractive gross profit for the retailer.  With a regular wholesale price of $1.40 per unit and a suggested retail price of $2.99, the retailer's gross profit is 49.8%.

February 5, 2009 – Fusion Premium Energy Enters into Joint Distribution Agreement with Vespa Beverages within the Direct Store Delivery Channel - SOLANA BEACH, Calif. - Bond Laboratories, Inc. announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Fusion Premium Energy, has entered into a Joint Distribution Agreement with Vespa Beverages, manufacturer and distributor of Killer Buzz Energy Drinks, as a Direct Store Delivery partner.

"In a major step towards the development of a Direct Store Delivery program (DSD), Fusion Premium Energy Products are very excited to announce our partnership with Vespa Beverages," said Scott Landow, CEO of Bond.

"The largest DSD programs in our business are dominated by independent bottlers and distributors. It has been a challenge for us to establish the right DSD relationships because the majority of their business is placing bottles and cans in retail coolers. The Fusion 2 ounce Boost by itself (which goes on the front counter) was not typically a fit in their business model. By partnering with Vespa and their Killer Buzz Energy Drinks, we now give these distributors strategic brands in both the 2 oz. shot for the counter and the 8.3 and 16 oz. Killer Buzz Energy Drink cans for the coolers. This is a 'win-win' for both companies. Since our products complement each other and don't compete, we can assist Vespa gaining access into markets where we are already strong and vice versa. By sharing sales resources in such a productive manner, each company essentially reduces their marketing costs by 50%," concluded Landow.

Adds Jeff Jonke to the Management Team of its Fusion Premium Energy Division - SOLANA BEACH, Calif. - Bond Laboratories, Inc. is pleased to announce that Jeff Jonke has joined its wholly owned subsidiary, Fusion Premium Energy, Inc., as Vice President of Distributor Development.

"Since inception, Bond Laboratories and Fusion Premium Energy have been committed to staying lean and keeping overhead to a minimum. The current economic climate now affords us the opportunity to acquire experienced talent such as Jeff Jonke, which would not have been previously available. He has spent his entire career in the beverage business, primarily in senior management positions at companies that include Rockstar Energy, Hansen Beverage (owner of Monster Energy), Jones Soda and Arizona Tea. We feel very fortunate to welcome Jeff to the Fusion Premium Energy family, knowing what a key leadership role he can play for us in the all-important Direct Store Delivery channel."
