Chlorophyll Water Secures First Institutional Investment to Accelerate Nationwide Growth

PRESS RELEASE — NEWS PROVIDED BY Matt Levine for Chlorophyll Water

NEW YORK, NY (APRIL 2026) — Chlorophyll Water, the brand helping pioneer the chlorophyll movement and the first bottled water in America to pass Clean Label Project Certification, today announced its first institutional investment, led by Blue Scorpion Investments.

Since launching in 2020, Chlorophyll Water has done what few emerging beverage brands achieve: helped create a new category while building a disciplined, capital-efficient business and maintaining profitability from day one. What began in yoga studios and later expanded through nationwide placement with Alo Yoga has evolved into a fast-growing, multi-channel brand with a loyal and expanding consumer base.

Today, Chlorophyll Water is available at leading retailers across the United States, including Erewhon, Whole Foods Market Northeast, Wegmans, Pavilions, Meijer, GIANT, Mother’s Market, Earth Fare, and Bristol Farms. As consumer demand for clean-label, functional beverages continues to rise, the brand has quickly become one of the most talked-about names in the hydration space.

The investment marks a significant milestone for the company and will help fuel its next phase of growth across national retail expansion, distribution, product innovation, and brand awareness. Blue Scorpion Investments, a U.S.-based venture capital firm known for identifying and scaling culturally relevant consumer brands, joins with experience backing standout companies including Eight Sleep, Van Leeuwen, Matchaful and Thursday Boots.

Most recently, Chlorophyll Water received Walmart’s coveted Golden Ticket, selected from more than 12,000 applicant brands, and is set to launch in 500 Walmart stores in May 2026. The brand is also expanding this quarter with upcoming launches at Harris Teeter, Nugget Market, Winn-Dixie, and additional retailers nationwide, while continuing to grow online through new platform partnerships.

“We built Chlorophyll Water with a long-term mindset from day one,” said Matt Levine, Founder of Chlorophyll Water. “We stayed disciplined, remained focused on our belief in the benefits of chlorophyll, transparency, and sustainability, and built real momentum organically.” Bringing on Blue Scorpion as our first institutional investor is an exciting moment for the brand and a strong validation of what we’ve built.”

Made with ultra-purified water, chlorophyll sourced from alfalfa, and plant-based vitamins A, B12, C, and D, Chlorophyll Water has distinguished itself through its commitment to transparency and sustainability, including Clean Label Project Certification, Plastic Neutral through rePurpose Global, bottles made from 100% recycled plastic, and aluminum cans launching this year.
