Dollar Tree
Coconut Water

One product family. Every Dollar Tree store. A complete coconut water lineup built to hit the $1.25 base price and the Dollar Tree Plus multi-price set across all 8,500+ U.S. locations.

The Retail Partner

Dollar Tree: 8,500+ stores. 48 states. The largest single-price retail footprint in America.

Dollar Tree (NYSE: DLTR) is the value destination for over 180 million households a year. Stores average 8,000–10,000 sq ft, and every location has a dedicated beverage cooler and a high-velocity front-of-store impulse zone. A Coco Love–built private label slots into both — at the $1.25 base shelf and at the $3 / $5 Dollar Tree Plus tier — with no coconut water competitor in the price set.

Store counts are directional estimates based on Dollar Tree corporate disclosures. A Texas + Florida pilot covers ~20% of the chain and ladders cleanly into national rollout with existing Dollar Tree DC logistics.

The Shelf

Built for the cooler door — and the value aisle.

Every Dollar Tree dedicates a full bay to single-serve beverages and an impulse end-cap to better-for-you drinks. Coconut water is the fastest-growing functional category in that set, and there is currently no Dollar Tree–branded option. We fill that gap with a $1.25 hero SKU and premium Dollar Tree Plus tiers — built for the customer who came in for hydration anyway.

The Concept

One packaging system. Every format.

Every package carries the same approved visual language: Dollar Tree green for Original, sunshine yellow for With Pulp, consistent palm-tree iconography, and a friendly cartoon coconut mascot sipping fresh from the husk. The system scales cleanly from the 8 oz mini-can to the 1-liter multi-price bottle without losing shelf recognition.

Tree Coco Original — green can
SKU 01
Original

The Lineup

Every size, every price point.

Anchored at $1.25 for the impulse can and laddered into Dollar Tree Plus for family and group sizes.

Functional hydration

Shoppers are trading sugary sodas for naturally-occurring electrolytes — exactly what Dollar Tree's value beverage shelf is missing today.

Untapped at the dollar tier

No national coconut water brand has cracked the $1.25 price point. A Dollar Tree exclusive owns that whitespace from day one.

Multiple consumption occasions

Mini-cans for kids, slim cans for impulse, family bottles for at-home — one brand system covers every basket trip.

Dollar Tree Plus halo

Premium 16 oz and 1-liter SKUs anchor the multi-price strategy with a category that signals quality, not compromise.

Market figures are directional category estimates based on published industry research and are presented for opportunity sizing only.

The Operating Partner
Coco Love Water logo

Private label backed by an eight-figure coconut water platform.

Coco Love Water 16.9 oz cans — the operating partner behind Tree Coco

The company behind this program is not a concept-stage co-packer. It is the team operating and scaling an eight-figure coconut water brand, with hands-on experience taking beverage products from formulation and packaging through production, national accounts, retail activation, and repeat purchase.

That operating infrastructure can be put to work for Dollar Tree: category expertise, established manufacturing relationships, quality control, supply-chain coordination, packaging development, and the commercial discipline required to build a durable private label at 8,500+ store scale.
