Liquid Nutrition Secures First International License Agreement in United Arab Emirates

With franchise locations throughout the U.S. and Canada, Liquid Nutrition Group Inc. announced today its first international license partner outside of North America as Liquid Nutrition Middle East prepares to launch an aggressive growth campaign throughout the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

"We are pleased that the Liquid Nutrition brand has attracted global interest so quickly," said Glenn Young, President, Liquid Nutrition Group Inc. "This is a significant milestone for the company and we are honoured to be partnering with distinguished leaders from the Abu Dhabi business community to launch Liquid Nutrition throughout the Middle East and North Africa."

A recent screening by the Health Authority Abu Dhabi showed 70% of UAE residents over the age of 18 are classified as overweight or obese, making Liquid Nutrition the perfect fit for consumers interested in improving their personal health and nutrition.

Liquid Nutrition has more than 25 different functional beverages, featuring everything from protein drinks and meal replacements to muscle recovery and simple rehydration.
