DESCRIPTION

This company is a development-stage startup with a single business activity: an exclusive license to distribute CocoLove water in France. CocoLove is an organic, coconut-flavored water sold in aluminum cans with no added sugar or artificial ingredients, manufactured and distributed in the U.S. by Monarch Media. As of the filing date, the company had not begun any marketing or distribution efforts in France. The company's business model is straightforward: buy CocoLove water from Monarch Media and resell it in France through grocery stores, convenience stores, restaurants, vending machines, and local distributors, targeting young urban professionals. Margins are the spread between the cost to buy product and the price charged to customers, minus a sliding royalty paid back to Monarch Media on net sales. The license is exclusive, but Monarch Media retains the right to sell CocoLove water in France through its own channels with no obligation to compensate the company. Monarch Media can also terminate the license if annual royalties paid do not reach at least $5,000 within each 12-month period starting August 2025. The company estimates it will spend approximately $100K over the next 12 months on marketing and distribution in France.
