ZICO Takes Gold For 2012 Olympics

ZICO Pure Premium Coconut Water is proud of their presence at the London 2012 Olympic Games as the official coconut water supporting and hydrating select athletes and even spectators. The London 2012 Olympic Games mark the beginning of ZICO's long-term commitment to the Olympic movement.  Over the coming years ZICO will look to develop unique programs and events that will bring the spirit of the Olympics to millions of naturally powered athletes, families and fans.

ZICO has always been about supporting and empowering diverse athletes across all levels of participation and competition in their sport. This belief led to the creation of Team ZICO, a carefully selected group of professional, Olympic and grassroots athletes who were chosen based on a combination of their passion and commitment for fitness and health, and their incorporation of ZICO's "Naturally Powered" brand philosophy. One such athlete is ZICO-sponsored swimmer Mallory Weggemann, who plans to compete in 9 events at the London 2012 Paralympic Games. 

The Olympic Games bring together thousands of elite athletes from around the world and ZICO is thrilled to support an event that is rooted in the core values the brand was built upon. "ZICO has always shared the Olympic Values, which include, excellence in giving the best of oneself, on the field of play or in life, taking care of one's own health and respect for the environment," said Mark Rampolla, CEO of ZICO Beverages, LLC. "We are honored to be a part of and look forward to supporting such a momentous event going forward."

Founded in 2004 by Mark Rampolla, ZICO Beverages, LLC (pronounced Zee-co) is the maker of ZICO Pure Premium Coconut Water.  With five electrolytes, as much potassium as a banana and low acidity, ZICO is the all natural, refreshing way to hydrate and replenish.  And because ZICO is the only major brand of pure premium coconut water available in both a tetra carton and a re-sealable, recyclable, on-the-go HDPE bottle, it truly is the ultimate hydration drink.  ZICO is headquartered in El Segundo, California.
