"Where's Marty" at Wild Bay Kombucha

In 2015, three individuals, stepbrothers Sergio and Adam, along with their best friend Sid, made a significant career shift by leaving their jobs to start a Kombucha brewing business. Initially operating from a small juice shop in Hampden, they have successfully expanded their operations to 900 locations across nine states. This remarkable growth reflects their dedication and the increasing popularity of their product. The company has established its third location in Northwest Baltimore within just nine years, showcasing the rapid expansion of their business. They now employ 15 people, indicating a commitment to creating jobs in the local community. Their Kombucha is not only a beverage but also a digestif, enriched with probiotics and active cultures that promote digestive health. The health benefits associated with probiotics have been recognized for centuries, and the company has enhanced the flavor of their Kombucha with various seasonal brews. The production capacity is impressive, with vats capable of holding 168,000 bottles, highlighting the scale of their operations. In addition to their business success, the founders are dedicated to giving back to the community. They contribute a portion of their gross sales to support the Chesapeake Bay, demonstrating their commitment to environmental stewardship. This story exemplifies a successful local business that has made a positive impact both economically and environmentally.
