31/08/05 Javo Beverage Company has announced that it has extended its supply relationship with WP Beverage Partners, the firm behind the successful ready-to-drink coffee beverages of celebrity Wolfgang Puck. Company officials indicated that the multi-year agreement extension makes Javo the exclusive coffee supplier for the original Wolfgang Puck Gourmet Lattes, low carbohydrate varieties launched last year and a line up of new indulgent lattes that come packaged in an innovative self-heating can.
Wolfgang Puck Lattes' retail success has propelled it to 3rd position in the ready-to-drink coffee category according to recently released sales data from Information Resources Inc. PepsiCo and Starbucks' North American alliance still controls the two top spots with Frappuccino(R) and Doubleshot(R).
