Having achieved a remarkable two-million-cans-sold milestone in March 2023, the boozy whipped cream brand has continued its impressive momentum and achieved an additional one million cans sold in just four months. Since its introduction to retail stores in February 2022, Whipshots has sold over a quarter of a million cans monthly on average, a testament to its growing popularity among consumers nationwide.

Global artist and icon Cardi B shared her excitement about the two milestones: “When I went into this, I didn’t want to create just another alcohol brand. I wanted it to be a whole new experience in a new category of liquor. I love seeing people celebrating with Whipshots taking things to the next level!”

Responding to the soaring demand for Whipshots, Starco Brands has expanded Whipshots availability to consumers in 36 states nationwide, plus the District of Columbia. The new markets recently added include: New York, Massachusetts, Virginia, New Mexico, South Carolina, Minnesota, Oklahoma, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, and Nebraska.

Starco Brands CEO Ross Sklar expressed his enthusiasm for the brand's rapid growth: “Whipshots has made enormous strides from its inception to scale and we are thrilled to see customers return and return again for the Whipshots experience. Our team has done an incredible job expanding its distribution both on and off premise throughout the US. Not only will Whipshots soon be available in every state, we are starting to explore international opportunities as well.”
