About Ocean Spray
Ocean Spray sells cranberry juice, dried cranberries and sauce, and handles most of the North American cranberry crop. A 2020 video of a man skateboarding while drinking its juice produced a sales surge the company could not have bought. It is a grower-owned cooperative, so the windfall returned to the farmers rather than to shareholders.
