Stix Drinks chosen by Amazon for new Clicks & Mortar Store

The innovative brand behind both Squash Stix and Vit Stix, single portions drinks in Sachets, has been chosen by Amazon and Enterprise Nation as one of the few businesses to showcase their products in a pop up store in Cardiff’s St David’s Shopping Centre.

After successfully trialling the concept of a pop up Amazon shop for 6 weeks in Manchester, Amazon are bringing the “Clicks and Mortar” store to the Southwest and Wales with the first such pop up at The Cardiff St Davids Shopping Centre. The new venture is intended to give 100 small online businesses nationwide the support and recognition they need to help them grow.

Tom Anderson-Dixon of Vit Stix said “It’s been a really great week. First a nomination for Nat West Entrepreneur Awards and now chosen for this fantastic opportunity to be associated with such an initiative. We’re pleased to be showcasing our products and gaining brand exposure as our Vit Stix has proved very popular and sales through Lloyds Pharmacy have been phenomenal. We are also launching into Grapetree stores Nationwide in a week.”

Stix Drinks have single portions of both squash in vitamins that tear into water to make a refreshing drink. They have achieved incredible growth via Amazon over the last year. Due to this growth, they have launched their range of products on Amazon America and have already been contacted by retailers to discuss launching the range in retail venues across the states.

About Stix Drinks

Squash Stix was the first product launched by Tom Anderson-Dixon. Whilst on a placement year from UWE Bristol with Marks & Spencer, Tom noticed staff members bringing in bottles of squash and taking them to the water cooler. Making a coffee with a jigger pot of milk he commented “we should put squash into these single portions to prevent people bringing in bottles” and alas, an idea was born. Squash Stix are now supplied into hospitals for patients, hotel bedrooms as an alternative to tea and coffee, airlines and offices at across the UK for employee hydration. The addition of Vit Stix has grown the business into the retail sector. Vit Stix are packed with Vitamins B5/B6/B12, C, D and Zinc to naturally boost energy and immunity. They are 99% less plastic than bottled vitamin waters. At 7 years old, the business is growing from strength to strength, and hopes to grow the range across multiple drinks.
