- Entered into supply agreements with two new aluminum can suppliers in the United States, which are expected to be operational in the 2021 fourth quarter.
- The energy drink category, and in particular our Monster Energy® brand, continues to demonstrate sustained growth in most of our markets.
- Continued to secure distribution in both our domestic and international markets for our products, including our new products introduced earlier this year.
- Planning for additional launches during the second half of 2021.
Challenges Ahead
