Why can't I find Floats in my area? Why don't you make Floats in package sizes I prefer?
-
Making our products available in all flavors and packages nationwide is a high priority for us. However, we license the production of our sodas to local bottlers, and they decide what flavors to produce and package sizes to bottle our products in. If a product or package combination you like is unavailable in your city, please do us a favor and call your local bottler and ask them to produce it. If the bottler produces it, please ask your retailer to carry it. If you need help contacting your local bottler, please send us an email with your ZIP code, and we'll let you know who has the franchise rights for Floats in your area. Remember, bottlers and retailers will only produce and stock what sells. The more people who call them, the more likely they will add the product or package size to their lineup.
