Our Story
And we're stickin' to it…
How It All Started
Natural Wave began in 1993 as a juice company and quickly established itself as the area's premier provider of bag-in-box juice in restaurants and night clubs. It was a natural progression that we would soon add a national soda line and we chose to distribute the Cadbury Schweppes lineup of old favorites.
Our first sodas were RC Cola, Diet Rite Cola, 7up, Dr. Pepper, Squirt and more — which we still sell today, 23 years and counting.
In 1999 Natural Wave's juice selection expanded rapidly as we began servicing retirement and assisted living facilities. What started as 9 juices has now become over 100 juice selections, including special health-supporting juices and products.
The Craft & Local Revolution
The most exciting phase of our growth began with the addition of several local and crafted soda brands. Seattle Soda, Thomas Kemper, Cock n' Bull ginger beer, Jones Soda, Cooper Organic Tea, and Rocky Mountain Soda are now all a part of our fountain lineup!
We also now provide hot chocolate, a fresh refrigerated coffee concentrate, and even several specialty teas, flavored waters, sparkling waters, and vitamin-enhanced waters.
Our People Make the Difference
None of this could have been possible without the dedication and effort of our employees. Our industry-leading emergency service has been a hallmark of our growth. Our customers know that we are the easiest fountain company in the Northwest to work with — and that they can always count on Natural Wave to install the proper equipment, deliver on time, and, most importantly, provide emergency service when necessary.
What's Next?
It has been said that the road to success is always under construction. We've added Seattle Lite (and healthy) sodas — a line of drinks that are a great-tasting and healthier alternative to full-calorie sodas.
We have also eliminated High Fructose Corn Syrup from our juices, developed lightly sweetened flavored waters, and added a special line of Hispanic drinks including Horchata and Jamaica.
As the demand for healthier alternatives grows, you can be assured that Natural Wave Beverages will always be at the forefront of change.
