Fizzing with Flavor: Inside the Alameda Soda Co.

Crafting Joy Through Flavor 

After seven years of collaboration, Sky Pace (CEO) and Anthony Sloan (CFO) of Alameda Soda Co. continue to infuse their passion into every fizz and flavor. Formerly of Dr Pepper, their journey together began in the world of corporate giants, but their hearts longed for something more personal.

When asked about their career highlights, Anthony expressed satisfaction in creating something tangible that brings joy and connection to others. For Sky, the thrill lies in the nostalgia sparked by taste, akin to the way a familiar song transports us back in time.

Their brainchild, the Alameda Soda Co., specializes in boutique sodas, each boasting a unique and flavorful profile. Embracing simplicity and quality, they sought to revive the essence of traditional soda, steering away from mass production in favor of a more artisanal approach.

Their latest venture into retail, featuring canned versions of their beloved sodas, marks an exciting milestone for the company. They highly value their customer bonds with a foundation on maintaining a strong local presence, emphasizing their commitment to authenticity and community integration.

When asked what superpower each one would possess, Anthony dreams of a superpower to freeze time or carbonate at will, while Sky values the virtue of patience. Both dedicated residents of Alameda, they value the island's eclectic community and Alameda’s unique charm. 

Outside of work, Sky and Anthony immerse themselves in diverse pursuits. While Sky constantly has the Alameda Soda Co. on his mind, he manages to dabble with his passion for paramotoring, and Anthony finds his zen when belting out karaoke classics like "I Got Friends in Low Places" when given the opportunity to step behind a mic.

As Sky and Anthony continue to blend creativity and craftsmanship at Alameda Soda Company, their dedication to quality, community, and the simple joy of a well-crafted soda remains unwavering.
We are honored to have Sky and Anthony as part of our PHX Coworking community. Learn more about Alameda Soda Co. and their flavorful soda’s.
