A relatively new Kelowna business is already catching on in the beverage industry.
Farming Karma, which started producing fruit drinks in Rutland in 2019, has been recognized by Sobey’s and Safeway as the winner of the 2020 Local Innovation Award.
“The team has gone to great lengths to increase sales in our stores through regular advertising engagement, consistently high levels of service, and has caught the attention of our customers by offering a healthy approach to carbonated, delicious beverages,” said a representative from Sobeys in the announcement of Farming Karma as the winner.
Farming Karma at 1160 McKenzie Road is a collaboration between apple farmer Karma Gill and The Vibrant Vine and Frequency Winery co-founder, Anthony Lewis.
The company started with an apple-flavored drink but now has five flavors to choose from.
