## About Sanzo

Sanzo is an American beverage brand that specializes in Asian-inspired sparkling water.

Founded in 2018 by CEO Alessandro "Sandro" Roco, the company aims to bridge Eastern and Western cultures through its products. The name "Sanzo" is a combination of the founder's first and middle names. The core offering of Sanzo is a line of flavored sparkling waters made with real fruit, featuring flavors like lychee, yuzu, pomelo, calamansi, and mango. Each 12oz serving contains fewer than 20 calories and only 5 grams of sugar, with sweetness derived naturally from the fruit. Sanzo emphasizes a clean label by avoiding artificial flavors, preservatives, and added sugars. Headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, Sanzo operates in the Food & Beverage sector and has raised over $16.3 million in funding from notable investors, including Steve Aoki and Simu Liu. The brand targets health-conscious consumers who prefer vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and low-sugar options, while also appealing to a broader audience interested in authentic beverage experiences.
