Now out of stock for both vanilla and cocoa versions of the RTD kids. Not looking good...

Was it ever in stock at Costco.ca either at brick and mortar or just online?

MajorTom Your correct that the online shows out of stock.. Why can't they keep it available? Is the demand outstrips the supply? Or problems again with production? Curious minds want to know WTH. PB

I sent them an email as to whether there was a problem with availability or if Costco no longer carrying product. Will post if i get a reply.

Thanks, Nazzy... great idea. I know that Costco ran out of the vanilla flavour months ago and it never returned. I assume their buyer got more of the chocolate which may be why it took longer to run out. I saw someone post on the FB BABY investors group that the kids RTD were on 30% discount in Sobeys or some other brick and mortar location. Don't know what to make of it.

There was no indication in the NR announcing the Costco launch that it was a trial. That response is bunk!

I took their reps once as positive. It was a trial and they are in ongoing discussions. So we cross our fingers Cheers PB

It certainly gives the impression this was a launch of the product. Not a trial which would have been 1 maybe 2 stores, assuming ... https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2024/01/10/2807015/0/en/Else-Announces-National-Launch-of-its-RTD-Kids-Shakes-on-Major-Canadian-Big-Box-Warehouse-Retailer-s-Online-Platform-with-Goal-to-Expand-into-Retail-Stores.html Cheers PB
