ARKAY Announces Explosive Global Growth and Worldwide Expansion Opportunity to Open ARKAY Zero Proof Mocktail Bars, Powered by the Revolutionary W.A.R.M. Molecule™, With Eyes on Future NASDAQ Listing
The pioneer of alcohol-free spirits, creator of the revolutionary W.A.R.M. Molecule™, is now inviting entrepreneurs worldwide to join the future of celebration. ARKAY products are alcohol-free, Halal-friendly, and do not require a liquor license for mocktail bar operations
MIAMI, April 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ArKay Beverages, creator of ARKAY ZERO PROOF, proudly announces exceptional international momentum, exponential sales growth, and the launch of a major global expansion program to develop ARKAY Zero Proof Mocktail Stores and ARKAY Bar Zero Proof locations around the world.
Founded in 2011, ARKAY is widely recognized as one of the first companies to introduce a new generation of alcohol-free spirits designed to replicate the burn, kick, and sophisticated drinking experience of traditional spirits — without alcohol. Long before the zero-proof movement became mainstream, ARKAY was already leading the category it helped create.
Today, ARKAY is not simply an alcohol substitute. It is a premium lifestyle brand created for people who want pleasure, excitement, freedom, and modern social experiences — without compromise.
ARKAY ZERO PROOF products contain 0.0% alcohol, are designed for consumers seeking a sophisticated alcohol-free alternative, and are suitable for alcohol-free lifestyles. Because ARKAY products do not contain alcohol, no liquor license is required to open or operate an ARKAY Zero Proof Mocktail Bar in many markets, subject to local business regulations.
Powered by the Revolutionary W.A.R.M. Molecule™
What made ARKAY revolutionary from the beginning was its ability to recreate the warming sensation, throat hit, and satisfying kick traditionally associated with alcoholic spirits.
Through years of innovation, the company developed its proprietary W.A.R.M. Molecule™ technology — an advanced sensory system that delivers the bold experience consumers seek while remaining completely alcohol-free.
The W.A.R.M. Molecule™ helped transform the zero-proof category from basic soft drinks into a premium adult beverage experience, giving consumers something entirely new: the ritual and pleasure of drinking, without the downsides of alcohol.
More Than a Beverage — A Feel-Good Lifestyle Experience
Consumers today want more than just a substitute. They are searching for beverages that align with wellness, balance, style, and enjoyment.
ARKAY was built with that vision in mind.
The brand offers pleasure in multiple ways:
- The taste and ritual of a premium social drink
- The signature ARKAY burn and kick sensation
- A sophisticated alcohol-free lifestyle choice
- The freedom to celebrate while staying in control
- A modern beverage experience designed for today's consumer
- A Halal-friendly, alcohol-free option for global consumers
Many loyal customers say ARKAY helps them socialize, relax, and enjoy nightlife without sacrifice.
Exceptional Growth and Strong Customer Loyalty
ARKAY reports extraordinary growth across multiple markets, with repeat purchase behavior remaining exceptionally strong as consumers return again and again after discovering the brand.
This reflects a powerful shift in consumer habits:
- Less interest in alcohol
- Greater focus on wellness
- Demand for premium alternatives
- Rapid growth of zero-proof culture
- Strong interest in functional and innovative beverages
- Growing demand for Halal-friendly and alcohol-free social beverages
ARKAY states that its growth trajectory remains exponential as the worldwide alcohol-free market expands.
