It took the brand to new heights. Dare grew 150% in volume sales over six years1 and not only became market leader of the iced coffee category, but also experienced share growth that far outweighed its key impulse NARTD competitors Red Bull, V Energy, Coca-Cola and Ice Break. Growing from the 5th to the 3rd position, 1% behind market leader Red Bull, leaving Coca-Cola behind.
