Think about how much you spend on bottled water. Not once — over a year. Cases from the warehouse store, bottles at the gas station, whatever's in the fridge at the office. For most households it's hundreds of dollars a year, spent a few dollars at a time, without ever really deciding to.Now ask where that money goes. It goes to four or five enormous companies. It does not come back to you. You are the most reliable customer those brands have, and you own nothing.That's true in Atlanta and it's true in Kingston. In the Caribbean it's sharper — islands surrounded by water, importing bottles, sending the profit somewhere else — but the underlying arrangement is the same everywhere. People buy water every day. Someone else owns the business.SHORES was built to change who's on the other side of that transaction.Five years ago that was a thesis and not much else. Today there's a company. SHORES Premium Water — Caribbean-sourced, microplastic-free, packaged in Tetra Pak aseptic cartons instead of plastic — is on shelves in thirty-six retail stores across the Caribbean and in eight hotels in the Caribbean and Florida. We're moving into the Cayman Islands and Jamaica now, with another twelve to fourteen markets in the rollout ahead. Manufacturing and operations are established rather than planned.And this year, we're bringing it to you. Before SHORES reaches U.S. retail shelves, we're opening direct shipping — you'll be able to order it to your home or your business and have it delivered. That means the people who back this company will be drinking it long before it shows up in a store near them.We are currently in the Test the Waters phase, and the campaign goes live in two weeks.Test the Waters means you can reserve your place now without putting money in. Nothing is charged, nothing is committed, and you can change your mind. What it does is tell us who's coming — and it puts you at the front of the line when funding opens.That line matters more than it sounds like it should. The strongest terms in a raise like this belong to the people who move first, in the opening days. If you wait until the campaign has been live a month, the opportunity is still there, but it isn't the same opportunity.Everything is at www.ownh2o.com — the product, footage from the facility, the team, the numbers. Ten minutes there will tell you more than anything I can write here.Here's the part worth sitting with. You are going to buy water this year regardless. You were always going to. The only question SHORES has ever asked is whether you own any part of the business you're buying it from.In two weeks, that question has an answer you can act on.— Nimon Bondurant, Founder & President, Caribbean Water Technologies Inc.
