PROFILE |
 |
Ocean Spray Cranberries has transformed cranberries from turkey sidekick to the stuff of everyday beverages, cereal, and mixed drinks. Known for its blue-and-white wave logo, the company controls about 50% of the US cranberry drinks market. A marketing cooperative owned by more than 900 cranberry and citrus growers in the US and Canada, Ocean Spray has blended the cranberry with fruits from apples to tangerines in a line of juices. It also makes other cranberry products (sauce, snacks), grapefruit juice, and Ocean Spray Premium 100% juice drinks. Ocean Spray was started in 1912 as a cranberry sauce marketer and became a co-op in 1930. It has been bogged down in recent years by bumper harvests and low prices.
