Cizzle Brands’ Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer John Celenza commented, “Our strategy has always been to spend the first 12 months following launch to systematically develop a strong footprint for CWENCH in Canada. With distribution across Canada’s leading specialty retailers like SportChek, Canadian Tire, Pro Hockey Life, Source for Sports and Golf Town, as well as Canada’s leading grocery chains like Sobeys, Safeway, Longos, Metro, Fortinos, London Drugs and others, we’ve hit that out of the park. Now we’re taking that playbook and building our presence in the U.S. That started in earnest with CWENCH Hydration becoming the exclusive hydration of USA Hockey. Now it’s accelerating with Pure Hockey, the largest hockey retailer in the U.S. which is carrying nearly the full range of CWENCH products in all of their stores. The U.S. is a huge market for us to conquer but we’ve proven our strategy in Canada and now we’re excited to begin executing our U.S. strategy.”
