We’re always excited to welcome new members into our community at Department, and today, we’re buzzing (with gut-loving goodness) to introduce you to Hip Pop – the bold, rebellious beverage brand shaking up the soft drinks game from their new space on Level 4 at Bonded Warehouse.
Who are Hip Pop?
Born on a farm in Cheshire and brewed in Manchester, Hip Pop is on a mission to make gut health exciting. They craft brew delicious, organic kombucha and gut-loving soft drinks packed with probiotics, antioxidants, and all-natural ingredients – no artificial sweeteners, no marketing gimmicks, just great-tasting drinks that do good.
Founders Emma & Kenny started Hip Pop after Kenny struggled with stomach issues and discovered the gut health benefits of kombucha. Fast-forward to today, and they’ve built an award-winning brand that’s stocked in over 150 retailers, and they are constantly innovating with new, boundary-pushing flavours.
What makes them special?
Unlike your average wellness brand, Hip Pop brings personality, attitude, and a little rebellion to the world of gut health. Their drinks aren’t just good for you – they’re packed with flavour, with mind-blowing combos like:
- Blueberry & Ginger
- Apple & Elderflower
- Strawberry & Pineapple
- Ginger & Yuzu
And they don’t stop at kombucha – their innovative Living Soda range is infused with Apple Cider Vinegar for an extra gut-boosting kick.
Why we’re excited to have them at Department
At Department, we’re all about championing ambitious, independent businesses that bring something fresh to the table. Hip Pop fits right in – they’re passionate, innovative, and pushing boundaries in the drinks industry. Plus, let’s be honest, we love a brand that keeps us refreshed and feeling good while we work!
So next time you’re on Level 4, say hello to Emma, Kenny, and the team – and if you haven’t already, grab a can of Hip Pop’s gut-loving goodness from the Department cafe on Level 3. Your taste buds (and your gut) will thank you!
