SPI West Port To Unveil New Products & Packaging For ALO Drink, Woodridge Snacks & Jenji Tea At SIAL Paris Trade Show

SAN FRANCISCO, CA., OCTOBER 8, 2026 - Based in South San Francisco and this year marking its most ambitious period of growth in over 30 years, SPI West Port is a leading food and beverage manufacturer and distributor known for its flagship brand ALO® Drink, the top-selling ready-to-drink aloe vera beverage in the U.S. and Canada. In addition, SPI West Port is the parent company of the rapidly-growing Woodridge Snacks line of globally-inspired vegan snacks, as well as Jenji Boba Tea, available across retail, grocery, convenience, drug, and food service channels.

During the SIAL Paris food and beverage industry trade show, taking place in the French capital between October 17 and 21, SPI West Port will be showcasing all three of its popular health and nutrition-conscious brands in Booth 5B R399. During the event, global buyers, distributors, importers, wholesalers, food service decision-makers and other attendees will have the opportunity to see a diverse range of bold new products and package designs from SPI West Port as the company continues to expand internationally. These include:

AN ALL-NEW LOOK FOR ALO DRINKS’ ORIGINAL LINE - Taste the Grandeur as the iconic ALO Drink introduces its recently upgraded bottles spanning all ten varieties of the brand’s classic Original line. Now sold in eco-friendly PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles featuring a cleaner and clearer white-based design with colorful fruit images and the line’s signature green caps, the new bottles have been crafted with a sleek, vibrant aesthetic designed to command immediate attention on retail shelves. Best of all, the new bottles will offer buyers and consumers alike a freshly modernized presentation of the same refreshing, premium quality and deliciously nutritious beverages that have made ALO Drink a category leader for decades.

The winner of numerous industry awards and accolades over the years, ALO beverages use real aloe vera straight from the leaf harvested from sustainable farms in Thailand and combines it with fruit and vegetable juices along with the very best and purest Non-GMO or organic ingredients.

ALO’s Original line is available in such tantalizing varieties as Exposed (Original with Honey), Allure (Mango & Mangosteen), Comfort (Watermelon & Peach), Crisp (Fuji Apple & Pear), Appeal (Pomelo, Grapefruit, Lemon), Awaken (Wheatgrass), Enrich (Pomegranate & Cranberry), Spring (Mixed Berry), Blush (Strawberry) and Blue (Blueberry).

WOODRIDGE SNACKS ADDS TWO DELECTABLE FLAVORS TO NEWLY RE-NAMED FRUIT WRAPS LINE – The relaunch of Woodridge Snacks in late 2025 was highlighted by the introduction of several deliciously nutritious all-natural veggie snacks that allow American consumers to explore the uniquely appealing flavors of lands far away without leaving the comfort of home.

Shortly after the brand’s relaunch, Woodridge Snacks introduced Mango Fruit Rolls to its growing family of products, and now - just in time for SIAL Paris – the company has renamed the line from Fruit Rolls to Fruit Wraps and added two mouthwatering new flavors: Banana Cashew Crunch and Pineapple Citrus. Along with the original Mango, the two new varieties feature real fruit wrapped in crispy rice paper, with all three flavors now offered in 50g bags.

After clinching a trophy at the World Food Innovation Awards, Woodridge Snacks recently secured the "Double Crown" of industry respect with the selection of the brand’s Vacuum-Fried Veggie collection as a 2026 Editors' Pick by Progressive Grocer.

POPPING UP AT A CVS OR OTHER RETAILER NEAR YOU! Buyers and consumers continue to embrace Jenji’s beloved new line of ready-to-drink Popping Boba teas in convenient PET cups (straw included just like in brick and mortar boba shops).

Available at CVS stores nationwide as well as at such chains as Sheetz, Loop and Go Mart, Jenji’s delightfully refreshing and irresistibly satisfying Popping Boba fruit teas are offered in Strawberry & Kiwi and Mango & Passion fruit flavors.

Boba tea, also known as bubble tea or pearl tea, is a fusion of tradition and innovation. Its origins hail from the 1980s on the island of Taiwan, where fresh boba tea shops now flourish. Boba tea starts with a base of brewed tea. Tapioca based chewy boba pearls are typically added to milk-based teas, while liquid filled “popping bobas” typically feature fruit-based teas as well.

With Boba shops popping up all across the United States and now representing one of the hottest trends in the entire beverage industry, the timing has never been better for industry decision-makers to visit the Jenji booth and discover the pure joy of Popping Boba tea for themselves!

Regarding the forthcoming SIAL Paris Show, SPI West Port founder and CEO Henry Chen and executive vice president Brian Choi jointly commented, “SIAL Paris has been an indispensable leader in the food and beverage industry for six decades, and we’re especially excited to be showcasing so many new and existing products during this year’s show. We humbly believe that ALO Drink, Woodridge Snacks and Jenji are brands that are all perfectly attuned to the desire among industry members and consumers for the healthiest, tastiest, most eco-conscious and nutritious beverages and snacks available today and we look forward to unveiling many other exciting new items over the months ahead.”
