The Albany Gazette - Aspire Biopharma's Subsidiary Announces Agreement with TruLife Distribution to Drive National Retail Expansion

ESTERO, FL / ACCESS Newswire / March 19, 2026 / Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:ASBP) ("Aspire"), wholly owned subsidiary, Buzz Bomb Caffeine Company, and TruLife Distribution ("TruLife"), announced they have concluded an agreement under which TruLife will manage and coordinate the sales, distribution and merchandising of BUZZ BOMB^™ to retailers nationwide.

TruLife Distribution is a premier agency known for scaling high-growth health and wellness brands. This relationship is designed to accelerate BUZZ BOMB's retail footprint, specifically targeting the natural, organic, specialty, and mass-market sectors where demand for functional, "on-the-go" energy is surging.

The BUZZ BOMB^™ Advantage: Energy Without the Liquid
BUZZ BOMB^™ is disrupting the traditional energy market with its innovative caffeine delivery. Each single-serving stick pack contains 50mg of caffeine in a fast-acting dry powder designed to be sprinkled under the tongue. This allows for a rapid caffeine boost without the need for water, mixing, or the "heavy" feeling of liquid energy drinks.

"We are pleased to engage in new distribution relationships that will continue to drive our sales and enhance our ability to reach consumers interested in our unique BUZZ BOMB^™ caffeine product," said Kraig Higginson, Interim CEO of Aspire Biopharma. "The energy segment offers exceptional growth and can be a highly profitable category. TruLife's expertise in reaching retailers opens a significant new and incremental sales channel for BUZZ BOMB^™ that is expected to support our efforts to bring the BUZZ BOMB^™ brand to even more contemporary consumers, strengthening our business."

"In a category full of products pushing the safe upper limit for daily caffeine intake, BUZZ BOMB^™ offers a convenient, small-serving alternative with impressive benefits. We are truly excited to represent the BUZZ BOMB^™ brand and bring clean energy to a wider audience," said Brian Gould, TruLife CEO and decades-long veteran of the health and wellness industry.

Aspire's forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our or our management team's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding our future operations. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "contemplate," "continue," "estimate," "expect," "intends," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "will," "would," and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements represent our views as of the date of this press release and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties.

As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, our actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ in our drug or supplement offerings include general market conditions, whether clinical trials demonstrate the efficacy and safety of our drug candidates to the satisfaction of regulatory authorities, or do not otherwise produce positive results which may cause us to incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our drug candidates; the clinical results for our drug candidates, which may not support further development or marketing approval; actions of regulatory agencies, which may affect the initiation, timing and progress of clinical trials and marketing approval; our ability to achieve commercial success for our drug or supplement candidates, if approved; our limited operating history and our ability to obtain additional funding for operations and to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates, and other risks and uncertainties set forth in "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.
