If Everything Everywhere All at Once taught us anything, it’s that sometimes the universe demands you to be in multiple places and doing extraordinary things—all at once. And that’s exactly what COCOES pulled off this March by sharing a mission of sustainability from the U.S. to Japan in just a few days!

From the sunny California to the vibrant city of Tokyo, COCOES showcased its sustainable coconut-based innovations to a global audience.   Thousands of health-conscious consumers, buyers, and industry leaders tuned in—not for googly eyes, bagels, or multiverse madness, but for pure coconut nectar power and a whole heart.

COCOES at Natural Products Expo West 2025

COCOES brought its coconut-powered vision to life at Natural Products Expo West, the go-to trade show for natural, organic and clean products. This event brings together thousands of brands, retailers and industry professionals who are shaping the future of health and wellness. It’s where innovation meets intention, and where COCOES joined the community of brands driving meaningful change.

Our booth was more than just a showcase. It became a hub for curiosity and connection. Visitors were drawn in by the flavor of our organic coconut flower syrup and condiments, but they stayed to learn what made these condiments different. Each product reflected our commitment to sustainability, wellness, and ethical sourcing.

People asked about our fermentation process, the farmers behind the products, and how coconut flower sap fits into a healthier lifestyle. These weren't just passing questions. They led to thoughtful conversations about responsible food choices and how small shifts in what we consume can create a larger positive impact.

Throughout the event, our team shared stories, listened to insights, and built connections. Whether it was a quick tasting or an in-depth discussion on regenerative farming, we welcomed every opportunity to talk about what matters most — good food that does good.

SLOW Goes Global at FOODEX JAPAN 2025

Just a week after Expo West, COCOES arrived in Tokyo for FOODEX JAPAN 2025, Asia's top food and beverage trade show. With little time to rest, our team was back on the ground, this time bringing the spotlight to SLOW, our naturally refreshing hydration drink.

SLOW introduces a new kind of hydration that supports balance, clarity, and intentional living. Visitors were drawn to its natural electrolytes, gentle energy release, and clean plant-based ingredients. Among the standout moments was the strong interest in our Oolong Citrus Grape flavor, which appealed to those seeking both function and flavor in their daily routines. Throughout the event, it was evident that consumers are increasingly seeking products that not only nourish the body but also resonate with their core values.

Our presence at FOODEX JAPAN marked more than a milestone—it signaled our growing connection with a global community that values thoughtful innovation. Through every conversation, taste, and new connection, SLOW continued to inspire a different kind of hydration. One rooted in nature, driven by purpose, and ready to meet the world.

A Global Story of Purpose

Our trade show journey this March wasn’t just a marketing milestone but it was a multiversal mission come to life. With one foot in California and the other in Tokyo, COCOES brought a message of a purposeful innovation to the global stage.

No googly eyes (well, maybe a few), no everything bagels of doom—just real ingredients, real connections, and a future-forward vision rooted in coconut flower sap and community-driven agriculture.

From the dynamic crowds at Natural Expo West to the vibrant halls of FOODEX JAPAN, we’re grateful for every handshake, every curious question, and every sip of SLOW that sparked a new conversation.

As we continue our global adventure, we invite you to follow along. Because in this universe—or any other—good food, sustainable choices, and a little coconut magic can go a long way.
