The Conference Pantry placement gave Polar Joe direct visibility with decision-makers at one of the industry’s most selective gatherings. “Back in 2015 the genesis of combining protein with coffee in a delicious iced coffee was born in the kitchen as I tried to create a delicious iced coffee to help me increase my protein intake. In 2017 we formulated a product that offered the same enjoyment and satisfaction of drinking a delicious iced coffee but flipped the nutritionals, leading with 21g of protein and just the right amount of sweetness with 9g of sugar from organic coconut sugar.” said Darcy Haggith, Founder and CEO of Polar Joe. “We are so proud that we were featured in this year's WSJ Global Food Forum.” Polar Joe delivers 20+ grams of protein per serving, 0 to 9 grams of organic coconut sugar or unsweetened, virtually lactose-free, and mixes in seconds. Its formulations draw on nearly two decades of experience fueling Canada’s national-level athletes through CSI and COPSIN partnerships. Polar Joe Espresso is now available at PolarJoe.com.
