Great New London Retailer

I just wanted to let the people of London know that they can now get The Pop Shoppe  at Prospector Foods, located at Gibraltar Trade Centre on Dundas Street. I also have to say they make the best meat pie's too. If you  like to buy Pop Shoppe by the case this is the place to do it at.

Another Great Email

I stopped at a video store on my way to work was just looking around and I saw the bottle The Pop Shoppe. I had to take a double look because I have not seen this product in such a long time. I live in St. Catharines and I still remember the store that was on Geneva St.  I would go there twice a week with my parents and have good times.  The bottles were stubbies back
then.  I just wanted to say thank-you for bringing back this product to my home town of St. Catharines.  Not only have you brought back the memories of good tasting pop but also the memories of the good old days when I went there with my parents. 

Thank-you and keep up the great tasting pop.

Canadian Food & Beverage Show 2005

Just completed exhibiting at the Canadian Food and Beverage Show in Toronto. The response was amazing! This show is primarily for food service operators and should help get The Pop Shoppe brand into your favorite restaurant. I have posted a couple of pictures from the show. Our booth design was a hit with its retro theme. Featured in the pictures is our sample girl Gina who did an amazing job keeping up to the high demand of people wanting Pop Shoppe samples. I also want to mention that Pop Shoppe is now being sold at all Kitchen Table locations in Toronto.

New Flavours

I'm happy to announce the return of 3 great Pop Shoppe flavours to our current line-up. The next 3 are (drum roll) Grape, Orange and Pineapple!!! I know most people are saying "Pineapple Soda???", and I said the same thing, but trust me its great!! I know some people are having difficulty finding The Pop Shoppe and we are working very hard on our new site which will direct you to retailers in your area that carry The Pop Shoppe. In the meantime you can call our distributor, Beverage World at 1-888-909-7623, or email us and we can help.

ORIGINAL POSTER

While researching the history of The Pop Shoppe as part of our relaunch, I came across this gem on Ebay. You don't see posters like this anymore. It'll definitely influence the stuff we're working on in some way.

Great Email

I just wanted to share a great email we received the other day. Thanks Chad and keep them coming.

Hello,

            I was shopping today at a little deli here in Halifax, Nova Scotia and I found a lone bottle of Pop Shoppe Root beer. I did a double take and smiled. I haven’t seen Pop Shoppe in as much as 20 years! I bought up the bottle and drank my childhood back. Marvelous Stuff, thought after finding out they only had a few bottle and I had the last one.

            Well, what I am getting at is, is Pop Shoppe going to come back here to Nova Scotia or is this an only occurrence? I sure hope not, my wife and friends found out now they want some J

            I just wanted to say thank you for letting me relive a piece of my childhood, and hopefully we all will taste your great Pop Shoppe across Canada. Thank you.

Update!

Just a quick update on the launch of the new site. I had a great meeting with my most excellent design team from AmoebaCorp today. The designs for the new site look awesome!! I have been getting lots of emails from people about their memories of The Pop Shoppe. Keep them coming!! For people interested in knowing where they can currently buy Pop Shoppe, give our distributor a call at 1-888-909-7623. If its not in your area then hassle your local variety store to get it!! I will post a few pictures I have, one is from my wedding in November, where we gave out special Pop Shoppe edition bottles as gifts to our guest. Kind of cheesy but people liked it. The second picture is from Elin. Its a picture of her and her brother David enjoying Pop Shoppe in 1972. Great picture.

Full website in progress!

AmoebaCorp is hard at work on the new Pop Shoppe website. Note how Project Manager Christiann Holweck and Web Designer Neil Collyer are braving the harsh conditions of the frigid Canadian winter to get the job done. The show must go on!

Welcome to the temporary Pop Shoppe website. We're hard at work on the full site which will be launched in February 2005. Stay tuned, as there will be frequent updates posted here about all things Pop Shoppe. All the best of the season to everyone!
