Liquid Death, a beverage company famed for its clever marketing, could be gearing up for an IPO soon, but investors still await definitive plans. In July 2023, The Information reported that Liquid Death hired Goldman Sachs to prepare for an IPO as early as the spring of 2024. While that timing didn't come to fruition, the company has been growing its sales and valuation and appears primed for an eventual public debut, with CEO Mike Cessario telling Bloomberg in March 2024 that an IPO is an option the company wants to keep open.
As consumers turn more toward non-alcoholic beverages and consider health factors like sugar content, Liquid Death has rapidly grown and become one of the most prominent independent beverage brands.
