Arizona Tribune - Greene Concepts Drives Walmart Momentum With Steady Growth: Be Water Distribution Expands Across Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia

MARION, NC / ACCESS Newswire / June 30, 2026 / Greene Concepts, Inc. (OTCID:INKW), owner and operator of a 60,000-square-foot bottling facility in Marion, North Carolina, and producer of the premium artesian spring water brand Be Water™, today announced continued retail growth within Walmart stores carrying the Company's premium artesian water products.

Recent retail performance data indicates point-of-sale (POS) dollar sales increased 34% compared to the same period last year. Year-to-date POS sales increased 24%. Average retail pricing also continued to strengthen, contributing additional growth beyond volume gains alone.

The primary driver of this performance has been expanded distribution. Walmart locations carrying Be Water increased across Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, representing a 148% growth in retail placement and significantly expanding customer access to the brand.

Greene Concepts also reported continued improvements in inventory productivity and retail execution. Promotional markdown activity declined to approximately 10% of sales compared to approximately 30% during the prior-year period. Product availability remained strong, with replenishment in-stock rates reaching 97.9%.

"Our continued expansion within Walmart reflects the progress Greene Concepts has made in growing awareness of the Be Water brand while maintaining operational discipline," said Lenny Greene, Chief Executive Officer of Greene Concepts. "We are encouraged by the sales growth, improving inventory performance, and expanding retail presence. As additional stores continue to ramp, our focus remains on supporting our retail partners and introducing more consumers to our premium artesian water sourced from the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina."

Be Water is bottled at the source from artesian springs and aquifer formations beneath North Carolina's Blue Ridge Mountains. Greene Concepts believes its combination of expanded distribution, strong product availability, and growing consumer awareness positions the brand for continued growth.
