JUNI ranked No. 187 on the Inc. 5000 with 1,815% three-year revenue growth. The functional tea brand, backed by Jay Shetty, now sells in 8,500 stores including Sprouts and Target.
JUNI, the functional sparkling tea co-founded by Jay Shetty, Radhi Devlukia and Kim Perell, landed at No. 187 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list. The company posted 1,815% three-year revenue growth, ranking No. 18 in the Consumer Products category. The list ranks the fastest-growing private U.S. companies by percentage revenue gain from 2022 to 2025.
“Being named to the Inc. 5000 is an incredible milestone for JUNI and a testament to the team behind it,” Perell said in a statement. “Growing 1,815% in three years shows the demand we're seeing for beverages that combine great taste with real functional benefits.”
The zero-sugar, organic tea is lightly caffeinated. Its ingredient list includes ashwagandha and lion's mane, plus reishi mushroom. The drink is sold at more than 8,500 retail locations nationwide, including Whole Foods Market, Target, Kroger, Albertsons, Costco, H-E-B and Sprouts Farmers Market.
Sprouts Farmers Market (SFM) carries JUNI in its stores. The grocer has an Alpha Score of 42 out of 100, labeled Mixed, indicating neutral sentiment from the SFM stock page. The brand’s rapid shelf expansion echoes a broader shift: consumers are swapping second cups of coffee or evening drinks for low-calorie, adaptogen-infused alternatives.
Co-founder Jay Shetty said the growth signals that JUNI “is becoming part of people's everyday lives.” The company’s e-commerce channel, including Amazon and drinkjuni.com, also contributed to the three-year revenue run.
