Cizzle Brands Teams up Again With Coach Chippy to Launch Pink Lemon Flow, a New Flavour of CWENCH Hydration™
Building on the strong sales performance of "Tropical Flow", Cizzle Brands is launching a new limited-time variety of CWENCH Hydration™ in collaboration with Coach Chippy called "Pink Lemon Flow". Pink Lemon Flow will be sold exclusively in Sobeys Inc. banner stores in the grocery category, in addition to several sporting goods retailers, Life Time Fitness clubs, and select Petro-Canada gas stations. TORONTO, July 16, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cizzle Brands Corporation (Cboe Canada: CZZL) (OTCQB: CZZLF) (Frankfurt: 8YF) (the "Company" or "Cizzle Brands"), is pleased to announce the launch of Pink Lemon Flow, a new limited-time flavour of CWENCH Hydration™ developed in partnership with long-time Cizzle Brands' collaborator, Coach Chippy. The launch of Pink Lemon Flow builds upon the success of Cizzle Brands' and Coach Chippy's Tropical Flow flavour of CWENCH which launched in January 2025, and has sold out its entire initial run including more than 20,000 cases of its ready-to-drink format. Starting in the second half of July 2025, Pink Lemon Flow will be carried in several different retail channels. In the grocery category, Pink Lemon Flow will exclusively be carried by banners of Sobeys Inc. in the grocery chain channel, including Sobeys and Safeway (in approximately 350 stores between the two chains), as well as all Longo's locations, and select locations of Thrifty Foods and Farm Boy (who began carrying CWENCH Hydration™ in March of 2025). The availability of Pink Lemon Flow at Sobeys is the first time the CWENCH Hydration™ brand is being launched at Sobeys. In addition to the Sobeys banners, many Canadian sporting goods retailers will be carrying Pink Lemon Flow, including Source for Sports, Sports Excellence, Pro Hockey Life, FGL Quebec, and Pure Hockey. Pink Lemon Flow will also be listed by select Petro-Canada locations, a gas station chain who has over 1,600 retail locations across the country. Additionally, Life Time Fitness will be offering Pink Lemon Flow at its fitness clubs in Canada and the United States. Cizzle Brands' Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer John Celenza commented, "Coach Chippy has grown to become one of the most influential icons in youth sports and it's awesome to be working with him again to launch Pink Lemon Flow. There's no one more enthusiastic about CWENCH Hydration™ than Chippy. We picked the Pink Lemon Flow flavour with Chippy because it offers a bright vibrant taste that people are going to love, especially during the summer season when hydration should be top of mind for everyone." Celenza added "Launching Pink Lemon Flow exclusively at Sobeys' banners in the grocery channel is also a big milestone for Cizzle Brands. We'll be sharing more details about the availability of our products at Sobeys in the coming weeks but suffice it to say we have a very exciting summer ahead of us as we team up with Coach Chippy and Sobeys to make Pink Lemon Flow, and CWENCH, remarkable successes." Regarding the launch of Pink Lemon Flow, Coach Chippy commented, "Summer was made for my Don't Think, Just Flow mentality. From driveway dangles, boardwalk blading, and staying fresh with the team — I wanted a drink that owned those moments. After seeing how fast Tropical Flow flew off the shelves, the team at CWENCH and I got to work. The result? Pink Lemon Flow — a crisp, tart pink lemonade with zero sugar and six electrolytes to keep you cool, dialed-in, and flow ready. It's a sip of summer in a bottle. Crack one. Stay hydrated. Let the flow take over." About Cizzle Brands Corporation Cizzle Brands Corporation is a sports nutrition company that is elevating the game in health and wellness.
