About TRIP

TRIP’s mission is to create calm in the everyday chaos, offering next-generation wellness products to power your lifestyle and nurture mental wellbeing. Co-founders, husband and wife team Olivia and Daniel discovered plant-based wellness after a transformative personal experience and decided to launch TRIP to bring the most delicious, highest quality functional drinks and supplements to millions of people globally.

Since launch, TRIP has become the world’s leading wellness drinks brand. It was named by Alantra as the fastest-growing FMCG business of the last 16 years, ranked the 4th fastest-growing company by The Sunday Times for two consecutive years, and is now the largest privately owned carbonates brand in the UK. Our multi-award-winning drinks and supplements are now available in over 35,000 stores globally, including all major UK Retailers, Erewhon, Soho House Global, Target, Carrefour, Monoprix, Albert Heijn and many more.

Our vision is to become the global leader in calming drinks and supplements. Synonymous with calm in the same way Red Bull is with energy.
