Extract A
Nexba launches in the UK
Nexba is an Australian soft drinks company founded by Drew Bilbe and his brother-in-law,
Troy Douglas. The brand is named after the Mexican beach where Drew first had the idea
of creating sugar-free drinks made from natural ingredients. Due to the popularity of its
drinks, Nexba has become a global success story. 5
In 2010, Nexba raised £250 000 using crowd funding. This allowed the company to
purchase its first canning factory. It produces three different flavours using batch
production. The drinks were so popular in Australia that this canning factory was
operating at 98% of its capacity. In 2013, Nexba changed its manufacturing process to
flow production. 10
Larger multinational rivals, Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, have responded to the growth of Nexba
by launching healthier brands of soft drinks, such as Fuze Tea and Driftwell. After launching
the brand in the UK in 2018, Nexba’s global sales revenue now exceeds £6 million.
