We are laser focused on creating high quality experiences to help individuals live healthier lifestyles: HydroJug

We all know how essential drinking water is and consuming enough water can allow our body to function as it should and help us stay healthy. HydroJug makes it easy to drink a gallon each day. Its half-gallon jug, which has attractive appearance and convenient design, has made a strong presence in the fitness and lifestyle industry and is rapidly growing. The company’s bottles are BPA free and come in a variety of colors that is sure to appeal to everyone. “Hydrate with us”, says HydroJug.

HydroJug was created to provide individuals with a quality, useful and customizable water jug. Back when HydroJug started there weren’t many oversized jugs in the market and the ones that did weren’t user-friendly. The founders of the company came up with the perfect water jug that solved those issues people were facing.

The HydroJug is easy to clean, fill, and mix, but large enough to keep you hydrated all day without constantly having to refill. Drinking water provides so many benefits; some of those are: assisting in weight loss, clearing up your complexion, improving mental clarity, and so much more!

HydroJug’s business model at present is primarily a D2C company, with a majority of its sales on their website. HydroJug’s founders focus on creating high quality experiences and relationships with their customers. This value is at the center of everything they do.

When HydroJug was launched in 2017 it received a lot of great feedback. People asked for a straw very quickly. So that motivated them to develop their next product. It was a challenging concept because HydroJug wanted the straw to work with its existing lid because it couldn’t afford to create new tooling. This is an example of how HydroJug values their consumer feedback and are able to get creative with their existing resources in order to give their consumers the value that they want.

Back then HydroJug learned that developing hard goods is very difficult and costly early on. The original product had some quality defects. For example, they had problems with the seals in the lid leaking, HydroJug had to upgrade the seals in the lid due to this leaking. Once they had the upgraded seals they sent them out to each of their customers at the expense of the company to fix this issue.

HydroJug was able to gather feedback from their customers and fix those defects quickly because they were on a small scale. From the very beginning the company’s top priority was delivering quality products in order to make sure their consumers were happy and making sure they were taken care of.     

In the beginning there was a lot of pushback which is probably very normal. HydroJug would set tables up at local gyms and go to Fitness Expos to get its product out there. People would take a look at the water jug and say it was too big, or they could never drink that much water, etc. After a few years with strategic marketing HydroJug has made it very normal to carry a “big” water bottle and drink that much water.

It has become a trend now and people love talking about hydration. Drinking enough water has become a trending topic in society and HydroJug is at the center of the conversation.

Here are some hydration tips for you:

  • Get yourself a HydroJug. The HydroJug will be your daily reminder to drink more water. Plus the HydroJugs look great so you will be hydrating in style.
  • Set up reminders in your phone to drink a certain amount within a certain amount of time.
  • Add fruit or flavoring to your water.
  • Grab a friend and set goals together, check in on each other and encourage each other to keep hydrating!
  • Drink from a straw. You will swallow more water when you drink from a straw then you would when you directly sip from the bottle.

HydroJug stands apart from its competitors in the market and has a continuous drive to produce new and high-quality products for its customers. No other large jug had a wide enough opening, handles, reusable plastic, and the convenience required to carry around a jug of water. HydroJug was one of the first to make an oversized bottle like this and made it easy and convenient to drink from a water jug. HydroJug takes pride in making sure that its bottles perform at a high enough level to meet its customers’ needs. 

HydroJug has gone beyond being just a water bottle company. They have created a tight-knit community of HydroJuggers who they encourage to pursue their goals and passions. For the organization their customers are top priority, and always think of new ways to involve customers in their designs. HydroJug feels that its commitment to customers is unmatched by any other company in the current competitive market.

Meet Hayden, CEO and Jake Wadsworth, COO

HydroJug was created when Hayden and his brother Jake Wadsworth were attending college at Weber State University. The brothers were inspired by a YouTube video of an athlete who was drinking water from a milk jug. The athlete complained about how there weren’t any quality jugs on the market and so the brothers snapped into action. HydroJug hit the market in 2017 with their flagship product; the half gallon water bottle. The brand began with only 3 color variants. Since then, HydroJug has put out over 40 color options and accessory products for the HydroJug. Over the past 3 years, HydroJug has grown by over 9,000%. Hayden and Jake’s entrepreneurial efforts have caught the attention of Forbes and Authority Magazine. HydroJug recently made its debut on the Inc 5000 list at #33 and is emerging as one of the fastest growing companies in Utah and Nationwide. The dynamic brother duo has achieved all of this while still in their twenties and is just getting started. The ceiling is still high for HydroJug and with a strong focus on continuous learning and growth; there is no limit to what this company can accomplish.
