When Do Sports Teams Need Labeled Bottled Water?

There are a wide variety of sports organizations that can benefit from their own private label bottled water. Here are the most prominent examples:

Major league teams - NFL, MLB and NBA teams are just a few examples of nationally recognized sports organizations that order bottled water with their own logos on them. This is especially a good move in regions where the team is a culture unto itself. Sometimes, the team actually participates in our distributor program and resells cases of water to local businesses, so they can share in the profits.

Local teams - Local minor league teams can do this too; for example, local minor league baseball or hockey teams may want to distribute to businesses that will sell water bottles with the team logo on them. It’s also an outstanding program for high school and college teams, because the schools can generate much-needed revenue this way. They may also want to sell the bottles at their concession stands; bottled water with the school’s logo on it is a great alternative to ordinary bottled water!

Youth leagues - City leagues, private Little League teams and other youth sports organizations can do great things with private label bottled water. Each team can have their own labels, or there can be a single label for the league. Our distributor program allows organizations to pay lower prices for our high quality, labeled water bottles so that they can resell them for profit. It’s an excellent fundraising tool for leagues, especially when they are sold at the concession stand.

These are just some of the incredible opportunities for sports teams who take advantage of our distributor program. To learn more, contact Riviera Beverages today; we will be glad to answer your questions before you place your first order!

Wedding Water Bottles: Making Sure They’re a Hit with Everyone

If you decide to order our personalized water bottles for weddings, you’ll be in need of some tips for making this favor a hit with everyone; that includes your guests and the venue where your event is being held. Here are some ways you can ensure that the personalized bottled water goes over great at your wedding, both during and after.

First, make sure your guests know it’s there. You’ve made a small investment in this favor, and you want to make sure it gets used. No couple wants to be stuck with tons of their own wedding favors afterward, so make sure your guests are fully aware of the personalized bottled water you have ordered for your wedding. If the bottles are sitting out in tubs so that guests can take one, place a large sign next to the tubs; they can say, “Please, take one,” or they can simply say “Water.” Signs are one of the biggest wedding trends going today, so your guests will probably expect to see a few of them around your venue.

Next, you want to make sure the bottles are something the venue welcomes – not just during your wedding, but after. For example, if too many bottles are left behind outdoors at the venue, the management may not allow couples to bring in personalized bottled water for future wedding events. To make sure this doesn’t happen, it may be a good idea to have a person assigned the task of staying behind a few moments after the ceremony or cocktail hour to clean up any bottles that are left behind. This may also prevent you from being charged any unexpected fees from the venue later.

We want our personalized water bottles for weddings to have a great reputation with guests and venues alike. Use these tips to make sure these favors are a hit with everyone, so you can feel good about providing them!

Can Private Bottled Water be Resold?

Yes, it can! Although we spend a great deal of time talking about the benefits of using our labeled bottled water as a promotional item or hospitality tool, we want you to know that it can also be resold if you are a business that is permitted to engage in resale activities. In fact, that’s exactly why we offer special pricing just for distributors. Here are some business models for which reselling our private bottled water could be appropriate:

• Hotels, casinos and resorts
• Gyms and other fitness facilities
• High end supermarkets
• Cafés and bakeries

These are just a few of the businesses where it would be completely acceptable to sell your own private bottled water, as opposed to giving it away as a promotional tool. It’s a great way to supplement your existing revenue, and in a sense, you’re still using the bottles as promotional tools because some people are bound to reuse them.
But what should you do if you have concerns about the sales potential of the product? We have an easy solution that makes sense for every business: Just make your first order a small one. At Riviera Beverages, we allow you to make low minimum orders; after all, we want you to have a great experience no matter how many you are able to sell. If you sell them quickly, you can order another shipment; it’s no problem, because there is no reorder charge applied! If your business needs an additional revenue stream, place a small order for some private bottled water with your own custom labels that you can sell to your customers. You never know what could happen; it just might be a hit!

Why We're the Better Private Label Water Bottlers!

If you have ever searched for customized bottled water before, you may be aware that we at Riviera Beverages are not the only private label water bottlers out there. However, we do offer some very distinct advantages that we want to make consumers aware of. Here are just a few of the most important:

Our bottles are BPA free. In a world where the medical risks of BPA exposure from plastics and resins is one of the top concerns among parents – and really, consumers in general – that’s an important feature that we can guarantee you. Riviera Beverages only uses BPA free plastic water bottles, no matter which of our many bottle designs you choose.

Our water is FDA approved. If you have read news reports that are designed to scare you into believing bottled water isn’t safe, you can rest assured that ours is. Our water products are FDA approved, as is our bottling facility. In fact, our customized bottled water is manufactured with standards that not only ensure consumer safety; they also improve the taste and quality of the water.

Our labels can be completely customized. Some websites offer you the opportunity to choose what they call “custom” labels from a template; that is not the case here. Riviera Beverages allows you to upload your own artwork, unless you prefer to work alongside us on your customized bottled water labels. Whatever event you are purchasing the personalized bottles for, it’s yours – and that’s why you should have the final say in how the bottle is labeled! At Riviera Beverages, we are proud to be private label water bottlers who offer customers something they can’t get anywhere else. Remember, quantity and quality are very different things; there may be other companies out there who can offer you customized water bottles, but many of them fall short of the quality that we offer here. Ask us for details by calling us at (714) 895-5169; we will be glad to speak with you!

Why Our Water Bottles are BPA Free

For those who are concerned about the harmful effects of BPA, it will come as a relief that our customized water bottles are 100% BPA free. Here are the reasons that consumers, particularly parents and pregnant women, may find that to be an advantage of our products.

For those who are not familiar with BPA, it is the abbreviation for the industrial chemical bisphenol A. 50 years ago, no one was concerned about this ingredient that was found in many polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins – but now, we know that when BPA is used in food and beverage containers, it can become a serious health risk to some consumers.

Because it has been an ingredient in the plastic used for children’s cups, food storage containers and plastic water bottles, BPA is something that many families could possibly be exposed to. BPA exposure has been known to be a cause of various brain and behavior problems in infants and children, and it has also been linked to certain prostate gland problems.

BPA is not found in quite as many products as it used to be, but it is still around – so it’s critical to make sure that any plastics your family purchases, particularly those that contain your food and beverages, are BPA free. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has said that BPA is safe at the very low levels, it is best to purchase products that don’t contain any of it at all. Because our customized water bottles are completely BPA free, they are ideal to be the personalized favors you hand out at:

• Weddings

• Baby showers

• Family reunions

• School events

• Charity events

These are events that are likely to have children and pregnant women present, and with our customized water bottles, there is no cause for concern about BPA. Take a moment to view more information about the purity of our product; we believe you will be impressed.
