  • Retail sales dollar volume grew nearly 21% last year, second best amongst the top-ten products.
  • Additionally, the Alkaline88 1-Gallon was one of only three top-ten value-added water products in Grocery to grow in unit sales in 2022.
    • The other two positive-growth products grew in unit volume by less than 2% compared to 2021 while unit sales of the Alkaline88 1-Gallon increased by nearly 18%.
