About Liquid I.V.

The product line is a great tasting, non-GMO electrolyte drink mix, made in the USA, and utilizes Cellular Transport Technology (CTT)™ to deliver hydration and other key nutrients rapidly into the bloodstream – helping consumers feel better, faster.

Our products are stocked in over 30,000 doors across the country, including the world’s leading specialty, big box, and online retailers such as Costco, Walmart, Target, Amazon, and many more. In just a few short years, our growth has been exponential. With this in mind, we are looking for world-class team members to help us continue disrupting the wellness industry and hydrating people in need around the globe.

One last thing (or two): We recently joined our friends over at Unilever to help us grow Liquid I.V. into a global brand. As a mission-based organization, giveback is one of the core pillars built into our DNA. Since 2015, we have donated over 22 million servings of Liquid I.V. to those in need around the world through our one-to-one giveback pledge. In 2021 alone we donated over 12 million servings to individuals and organizations making an impact globally, nationally, and locally.

As we move into 2024 and beyond, we will expand our impact, and create durable, positive change in vulnerable and underserved communities. As part of our mission, we are committed to upholding environmentally responsible business practices and championing an ethos of health and wellness for all.
