VANCOUVER, BC, April 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ – NEXE Innovations Inc. (TSXV: NEXE) (“NEXE” or the “Company”), a leader in plant-based materials manufacturing, is pleased to announce a new partnership with Orca Pacific (“Orca”), a full service Amazon agency. Orca will be instrumental in the development and execution of NEXE’s Amazon store sales strategy for its XOMA Superfoods (“XOMA”) product line.
Orca Pacific provides expertise and state-of-the-art technology to craft and carry out cutting-edge Amazon strategies. Amazon.com is the largest online retailer in North America.
“Since launching our XOMA Superfoods online store last week, the product has already sold tremendously well,” said Ash Guglani, President of NEXE. “By incorporating a comprehensive Amazon strategy, we plan to continue to considerably grow our direct-to-consumer, eCommerce sales channels.”
NEXE has received approval to sell its fully-compostable coffee pods in the Grocery & Gourmet Food section of Amazon, which is one of Amazon’s fastest growing and most popular product categories. The Company expects to be selling its pods on Amazon by May 2021 and will continue to deploy resources to increase its online presence and sales traction.
“Orca Pacific is thrilled to be partnering with XOMA Superfoods to launch and grow their brand on Amazon. Not only is XOMA jumping into one of the hottest categories on Amazon, they are doing so with sustainability at the core of their business. We look forward to helping XOMA reach more customers and spread their mission on the world’s largest eCommerce platform,” said Andrew Lorence, Senior Business Development Manager of Orca Pacific.

“eCommerce is a key component of our go-to-market strategy. NEXE pods were created not only with sustainability in mind – but convenience. The coffee pod creates the ultimate in convenience, with no clean-up, and a delicious cup of coffee ready in seconds,” added Guglani. “By offering our products online, and eventually through a subscription model, we can deliver products right to our customers’ doors, making it as simple as possible to enjoy superfood-enhanced coffee.”
NEXE pods uses plant-based materials and can break down completely in municipal composting facilities. Over 40 billion petroleum-based single-serve coffee pods end up in landfills around the world every year, and NEXE is on a mission to eliminate this source of waste.
