Logistics Manager

at  Dash Water

WHO WE ARE

In a world where old school soft drinks, unnecessary food waste and outdated business practices are a thing of the past, DASH is at the forefront of a new wave of healthy soft drinks. We infuse our super tasty waters with real wonky fruit. That’s the bent, crushed, misshapen fruit that supermarkets say no to.
Finally, a drink to feel good about. No sugar, no sweeteners, no worries.
DASH launched in 2017 and has quickly become the market leading brand in a category that has grown over 150% YoY in the UK. DASH has an industry-leading DTC platform, and in 2024 will sell 35 million cans in 20+ international markets with notable retailers including: Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Waitrose, Ocado and COOP.
We are incredibly proud to say that we are a Certified B Corporation. We always intend to use our business as a force for good, and now it’s official.
