We also have stated that we want to bottle our own soda. We have much of the process in place to make this happen. The biggest issue we currently face is operating capital. In researching the process we have found that labeling for bottled soda is quite expensive. So this has caused a problem with funding the project. While store sales have increased our operating capital has been directed into another part of our venture which has precluded any chance to bottle our own soda at this time.
The final part of this update is in regard to where our capital expenditures have been over the last year. We have taken on the task of distributing sodas to other locations. We currently have several customers in the area and a few our of our direct market zone. If you have a store, carry-out specialty market or restaurant that might benefit from having glass bottled soda on your menu or shelf feel free to contact us at frank at thelmer.com and we can discuss your requirements and how to properly fulfill them.
]]>If you are looking for our retail product offerings you need to head over to the Thelmer’s Soda Depot homepage. We have renamed our store from Black Swamp Soda Works to Thelmer’s Soda Depot. The was done to provide a level of distinction between the retail store and the manufacturing operations.
With that change also comes the announcement that we are currently gearing up to offer our own take on some of your favorite soda flavors. This summer we will be announcing our new flavors as they are produced. These soda will be available in the store, on our website and at select events over the summer. So stay tuned to this site and our retail site for announcements about when and where these products will be available.
