As part of the transaction, RCPL gains control of Goodness Group’s portfolio of beverage brands, which are positioned around health, wellness and low-calorie consumption.
The portfolio includes Nexba, a gut-health drink sweetened with plant-based, zero-calorie alternatives, as well as PACE, a hydration beverage co-created with Australian cricket captain Pat Cummins. Other offerings include BISON, a protein-enriched drink, and GOOD BREKKIE, a liquid breakfast solution designed for on-the-go consumers.

Expansion and Distribution Strategy
Following the acquisition, RCPL plans to scale the Goodness Group brands into additional markets, including India. The company intends to leverage its established distribution network to accelerate market penetration and brand visibility.
The deal further strengthens RCPL’s beverage portfolio, which already includes brands such as RasKik fruit juices, Sun Crush drinks, Shunya herbal beverages and zero-sugar carbonated offerings.
