The flavor list is long, the format decides the sale

Open the shake category and the flavors come fast: black sesame, misutgaru, grain, double chocolate. Each one is a good idea. The question that shapes your counter is not the flavor, it is the format.

A single-serve pouch is a purchase a member makes on the way out. A large tub is a commitment that needs a scoop, a shelf and a conversation. Start with the one that fits how your customers already buy.

Three things every shake format asks of you

1

Serving

Is one serving a pack someone can pick up and take, or a scoop that needs measuring?

2

Space

How much counter, shelf or fridge-door space does one facing take?

3

Care

Which allergens and storage notes does your team need to handle at the till?

Eight shakes, two formats

Six pouches and two tubs. Nutrition figures are as listed on each product page.

A first order that makes sense

Start with pouches, two flavors, one grain-style and one dessert-style. The BBagio Grain and Double Deep Chocolate make a clear pair, and each lists its protein and sugar per serving on the page.

Bring in a tub once members start asking for a bigger format. Use the first order to learn which flavor your customers choose, then let that decide the tub.

Standard wholesale pricing starts at a $500 single-order minimum. Request a recommendation and we will confirm the terms for your market.
