Hint Inc.

ABOUT HINT  Back when we started Hint, our motto was Drink Water, Not Sugar. Our mission to this day is to help people fall in love with water — delicious fruit-infused water — so they can live healthier lives.  Ever since then, we’ve attracted our share of imitators, but no one has been able to match that touch of true fruit flavor in every bottle of Hint. The craftsmanship we put into creating flavors that fully reflect their fruit origin is unparalleled. And with no sweeteners, no preservatives, and zero calories, is it any wonder our fans have turned Hint into an obsession?   Today, Hint is sold in over 30,000 stores all over the United States. We feature dozens of amazing flavors — including perennial favorites Blackberry, Watermelon, and Cherry — as well as limited edition smash-ups and exclusive bundles, all available at drinkhint.com, Amazon, e-Retail account, and major retailers.    THE OPPORTUNITY  As Manager, Procurement at Hint, you’ll be at the forefront of sourcing and managing key suppliers, negotiating contracts, and ensuring the timely acquisition of materials needed to support our growth.
