SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / October 26, 2026 / Fast Moving Consumer Goods, Inc. (OTCID:GGII) announced today that its incubated client, Calmara Beverage Company, Inc., has received a purchase order from Keg N Bottle, a Southern California beverage and liquor retailer, for Calmara's debut flavor, Pineapple Zen.

The purchase order represents an important milestone in Calmara's retail expansion strategy, introducing the brand to a new distribution channel in San Diego County alongside its existing direct-to-consumer presence at www.DrinkCalmara.com and TikTok Shop.

Key Highlights:

"We're excited to take this next step in Calmara's journey and introduce the brand to customers through Keg N Bottle," said Dr. Carlos Sanchez, founder of Calmara Beverage Company, Inc. and a practicing interventional cardiologist.

"Calmara was created around a simple philosophy: wellness is intentional. We wanted to build a beverage brand that reflects a thoughtful approach to everyday choices, with a distinctive identity and ingredients selected to align with that vision. This purchase order represents an exciting opportunity to introduce Calmara to more consumers in Southern California."

Keg N Bottle lists 10 store locations in San Diego County on www.kegnbottle.com as of October 2026, including La Jolla, Clairemont, Sorrento Valley, Tierrasanta, Del Cerro, La Mesa, National City, Lemon Grove, and Rancho Santa Fe. Keg N Bottle carries beverages, specialty products, and emerging brands across those stores, and the Calmara purchase order adds a physician-founded functional beverage to that retail assortment.

"We look for products that offer something unique to our customers," said Tony Konga, Chief Executive Officer of Keg N Bottle. "Calmara brings a physician founder and an anime-inspired identity to the functional beverage category, and we are excited to add Calmara to our San Diego County stores."

A Physician-Founded Brand Inspired by Intentional Wellness

Calmara was founded by Dr. Carlos Sanchez, a practicing interventional cardiologist with a professional background in cardiovascular medicine and a longstanding interest in preventive health, lifestyle, and longevity.

His experience in medicine helped shape the philosophy behind Calmara: encouraging a more intentional approach to everyday wellness and recognizing that personal health involves a combination of nutrition, physical activity, sleep, recovery, and sustainable lifestyle habits.

Rather than positioning Calmara as a substitute for those fundamentals, the company seeks to offer a beverage choice that reflects its broader wellness-minded philosophy. "Throughout my medical career, I've seen the importance of the choices we make every day," said Dr. Sanchez. "Exercise, nutrition, sleep, and managing stress are fundamental to long-term health. Calmara was inspired by that philosophy of intentional living. It's about creating a brand that reflects those values, not suggesting that any single beverage can replace the foundations of wellness."

Introducing Pineapple Zen

Calmara's debut flavor, Pineapple Zen, is a 12-ounce caffeinated beverage containing 150 mg of caffeine sourced from green tea and green coffee bean. The formulation includes a selection of ingredients chosen to reflect the brand's product-development philosophy and flavor experience.

Pineapple Zen introduces consumers to Calmara's distinctive creative identity, inspired by elements of Japanese anime and manga culture. Each Calmara flavor is designed around an original character and visual story, creating an expanding brand universe intended to connect with consumers who appreciate creativity, storytelling, and contemporary lifestyle culture.

The Pineapple Zen character, Painappuru, also known as Pain, serves as the guardian character associated with the brand's first flavor. By combining its beverage formulation with a distinctive visual identity, Calmara aims to establish a recognizable presence in the evolving functional beverage category.

"Dr. Sanchez created a differentiated brand that combines wellness principles, a practicing cardiologist's perspective, and a unique identity. Keg N Bottle's purchase order puts Calmara in front of San Diego County shoppers in-store, in addition to DrinkCalmara.com and TikTok Shop."

Industry analysts project the global functional beverage market to reach $277.89 billion by 2033.
