ABOUT DADA DRINKS
Nothing seemed to predestine the founder of Dada Drinks to launch a soft drink brand. Yet from Nanterre, a city in the suburb of Paris, a young man shaped by resilience forged his own path. “My family gave me grit. They taught me to face challenges with confidence, without ever giving in to discouragement.”

The eldest of a modest family, he began working at a young age. By learning on the job, he quickly acquired skills and, above all, the instinct to put them into action. His determination caught the eye of a pizzeria owner, and when the chance arose to buy the business, he seized it, revitalizing it with daring ideas and fresh energy.

From this same bold spirit came Dada Drinks: a brand inspired by the Dadaism art movement, renowned for defying conventions with audacity and creativity.

Sparkling, fruity, and unapologetically original, Dada’s 12 flavors are made to brighten every moment. More than just a drink, Dada is an attitude, an invitation to live fearlessly and embrace life with style.
