2025 End of the Year Review 💥
'25 set the foundation for Crani-Yum to allow us to EXPLODE in 2026 & beyond!
✨️Exceeded our YOY sales targets
👉 The past 4 months have been the biggest sales months we have ever had for Crani-Yum.
✨️Bought a Crani-Yum delivery van and branded it.
✨️Launched 2 amazing new flavors & ordered 1 more that will launch early '26
👉 June - Blue Twist
👉 September -Melon crisp
👉 Early 2026 - Cran Grape
✨️2025 also brought some challenges:
👉January 2025 we dealt with huge issues with our original co-packer that caused supply shortages & inconsistent, poorly carbonated product
👉We had to destroy 5 pallets of the peach rings flavor that was made by our old co-packer, that we deemed as unsellable.
👉Speaking of our old co-packer, we made the decision to switch co-packers. Starting with the blue twist in June, everything since has been produced by the new co-packer in Des Moines, IA. We're extremely grateful for this new partnership!
Crani-Yum can be found at stores scattered across the US, but 2025 was about building density here in Nebraska for us, focusing on samplings at retail locations, Omaha beef games, the fights in Omaha, and more!
Local advertising with HuskerOnline and Corn Crazed have been absolutely huge for growing our brand, so huge thanks to you guys!
We are still working on some of the local chains here in Nebraska, but a HUGE shout out to all the independent retailers that have picked up Crani-Yum, we DO NOT take that for granted. We have added at least a Dozen new locations between Albion, Battle Creek, Newman Grove, Norfolk, Rising City, and all the other local towns!
We will continue to work on improving in every aspect!
We have a bright 2026 outlook! We are excited to share in the near future some things that are in the pipeline.
Thank you & God Bless!
BC & JS
