Tampico Beverages is a US-based producer specializing in bottled fruit-flavored beverages and gelatin, distributed domestically and in over 50 international markets. Since 2008, it has operated as a fully owned division of Houchens Industries Inc.

History

Established in 1989 with the introduction of Citrus Punch, Tampico began its global expansion during the early 1990s by partnering with its initial licensee in Mexico. Over time, the company broadened its assortment of flavors and packaging formats, currently providing concentrate to licensees around the globe. In 2018, Tampico refreshed its brand image with its first logo update in more than a decade, showcasing a livelier visual identity.

Products

In 2005, the company introduced Tampico Plus, a variant containing half the sugar content of the original formula. By 2014, Tampico's beverage offerings in the US were promoted as soft drinks labeled "punch," primarily composed of water, sugar, and flavorings with only a small proportion of fruit juice.
