About

Liquid Death is a beverage company that weaponized heavy-metal branding to disrupt the bottled water and sparkling beverage category. Founded in 2019 by Mike Cessario, the brand sells mountain water, sparkling water, and flavored iced teas in recyclable aluminum cans under the mantra "Murder Your Thirst." The company's irreverent marketing — featuring death metal imagery, skull logos, and viral shock-humor campaigns — has attracted a fiercely loyal Gen Z and millennial consumer base and placed Liquid Death in major retailers including Whole Foods, Target, Walmart, and 7-Eleven as well as every major sports and entertainment venue.

About

Red Bull GmbH is a Fuschl am See, Austria-based energy drink company — privately held, majority-owned by the Thai Yoovidhya family and the estate of co-founder Dietrich Mateschitz (who died in 2022) — that invented and dominates the global energy drink category with 12.7 billion cans sold in fiscal year 2024 (+4.6% growth), generating €11.2 billion in revenue with €2.61 billion in net income across 180+ countries and 43% global energy drink market share. Founded in 1987 by Austrian entrepreneur Dietrich Mateschitz and Thai businessman Chaleo Yoovidhya (who adapted the Thai energy drink Krating Daeng for Western markets), Red Bull's original Red Bull Energy Drink (250ml slim can, 80mg caffeine, taurine, B vitamins, adapted taste profile for European consumption) created the energy drink category that Monster, Rockstar, and hundreds of followers have since entered.
