In starting our business, our philosophy was and still is quite simple: We think there is an alternative to today's world in which artificial ingredients are used in many products. We asked ourselves - which would we rather consume, products derived from nature or artificial ones manufactured in a lab?
Toby Scheckter, the founder of Scheckter's Organic Beverages was raised on Laverstoke, the UK's largest organic farm owned by his father Jody Scheckter. Involvement in the day to day activities of running this farm gave Toby a deep understanding and appreciation for the process involved in organic produce. Recognizing that there was a significant gap in the energy drinks market for a healthier alternative, Toby and his brother Freddie spent two years developing the Worlds First 100% Natural, Organic and FairTrade approved organic drink.
Scheckter's Organic Beverages we believe that it is possible to harness the Power of Nature and create great tasting drinks. We wanted to create a 100% natural, organic product that is effective and tastes great. A lot of research, development, testing and pride has gone into creating our 100% natural organic energy drink. What we ended up with is the world's 1st 100% natural, organic certified Fairtrade approved energy drink. We use no artificial colours or preservatives. All our ingredients are organic, 100% natural and independently approved.
All energy drinks have "effective ingredients". Scheckter's OrganicEnergy™ drink is no different – except that our "effective ingredients" are 100% natural and organic.
Extracts from organic raw green coffee beans and organic guarana give the physical and mental endurance from caffeine, the organic gingko biloba will help your mental performance, the organic ginseng will help your body deal with stress better. We use organic, Fairtrade raw cane sugar to help blend the flavours and provide additional energy. Plus organic pomegranate and organic elderberry juice are known to be rich in antioxidants. So "effective natural ingredients" all use the POWER of NATURE.
Each can of Scheckter's OrganicEnergy™ contains the perfect combination of organic and natural ingredients to provide sustained energy deliverance. The benefit of our particular blend of 100% natural ingredients is that the energy from the ingredients of the organic energy drink are released slowly over a longer period of time, creating a sustainable energy lift that avoids the short lift and sudden 'crash' of other energy drinks.
Organic is great for your well-being and the environment, is kind to animals and wildlife and allows us make a big difference - simply through the way we shop. You can feel good every time you take a sip of Scheckter's OrganicEnergy™ drink.
Scheckter's Organic Beverages believes in using 100% natural and organic ingredients. Our goal is to make the best 100% natural energy drink in the world. There are several important reasons why we decided to use organic ingredients:
Hydrogenated fats and controversial additives including aspartame, tartrazine and MSG and these are banned under organic standards. Our OrganicEnergy drink has been developed to support your well being.
At Scheckter's Organic Beverages, we believe in organic farming and source our ingredients from organic farms. Organic farming releases less greenhouse gases than non-organic farming. Choosing organic, local and seasonal food can significantly reduce your carbon footprint.
Organic farms are havens for wildlife and provide homes for bees, birds and butterflies. In fact, the UK Government's own advisors found that plant, insect and bird life is up to 50% greater on organic farms. Schecters Organic Beverages supports organic farms to protect wildlife.
Genetically modified crops and ingredients are banned under organic standards. You may be surprised to know that over a million tonnes of GM crops are imported each year to feed non-organic livestock which produce pork, bacon, milk, cheese and other dairy products. At Scheckter's Organic Beverages, we believe in GM-free products.

FairTrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world. By requiring companies to pay sustainable prices (which must never fall lower than the market price), FairTrade addresses the injustices of conventional trade, which traditionally discriminates against the poorest, weakest producers. It enables them to improve their position and have more control over their lives. At Scheckter's Organic Beverages, we believe in supporting FairTrade.
