🌿 Kobane: The Refreshing Flavor of Medellín's Urban Eco-Gardens

A 100% Natural Innovation with Local Roots

In the vibrant heart of Medellín, where concrete meets the green of the mountains, an initiative has blossomed that merges innovation, sustainability, and authentic flavor: Kobane, a refreshing beverage that is the pride of the city's urban eco-gardens (ecohuertas urbanas).

Kobane is not just a drink; it is the tangible result of a commitment to local research and development, demonstrating that it is possible to bring products of high nutritional value and a minimal ecological footprint from the garden to the table.

🔬 An R&D&i Project with Vital Results

The history of Kobane began to take shape in 2018 as an ambitious Research, Development, and Innovation (R&D&i) project. For two years, a dedicated team worked on the perfect formulation, seeking to create a 100% natural, refreshing beverage with remarkable health benefits.

This meticulous process culminated in late 2020, resulting in a drink whose raw materials come directly from ingredients carefully grown in Medellín's urban eco-gardens. This provenance guarantees not only freshness and quality but also direct support for local producers and sustainable agriculture practices.

✨ Nutrition in Every Sip

One of Kobane's greatest appeals lies in its nutritional composition. The drink's natural formulation makes it an excellent source of essential micronutrients:

• Calcium: Contributing to bone health.

• Iron: Fundamental for oxygen transport in the blood.

• Dietary Fiber: Promoting digestive health.

As a one hundred percent natural product, Kobane is positioned as an ideal alternative for those seeking to hydrate and nourish themselves without resorting to artificial additives, added sugars, or preservatives.

🚀 Launch and Growth in the Local Market

After the project's completion and product consolidation, Kobane made its official market debut in February 2021.

Its commercialization strategy has been as organic as its ingredients. Step by step, the beverage made its way into the conscious consumer circuits of the Antioquia capital. Today, Kobane is a recognized and valued product in:

• Agroecological Markets: Connecting directly with customers who value sustainable sourcing.

• Health Food Stores: Offering a natural option against traditional beverages.

This trajectory has allowed Kobane to grow steadily and sustainably, building loyalty among consumers who seek a local, innovative product that contributes to a healthier lifestyle.

🏆 Recognition and Projection: Kobane Conquers the National and International Scene

A History of Success Endorsed by Innovation

The quality and potential of Kobane have not gone unnoticed in the Colombian entrepreneurship ecosystem. Throughout its short trajectory, the beverage has been recognized and awarded in prestigious competitions, endorsing its business model, social impact, and scientific basis:

Year	Competition Won	Recognition Focus
2021	Capital Semilla Seed Capital	Support for the initiation and scaling of entrepreneurship.
2022	Talentpitch	Recognition of human talent and growth potential.
2023	Oportunidades sin Fronteras	Emphasis on social impact and sustainability.
2024	Innpulsa Colombia Program	Support for innovation and business growth.

These awards demonstrate that Kobane is a solid project looking towards the future of functional beverages.

🧪 Scientific Perfection and Extended Shelf Life

The commitment to excellence led the Kobane team to perfect the formula twice. These adjustments focused crucially on balancing the pH and significantly extending its shelf life without relying on chemical preservatives.

The result is an impressive technical achievement: Kobane can last up to 9 months in optimal condition, maintaining its 100% natural purity, as no synthetic chemical ingredients are used.

🍎 The Promise of Normoglycemic Properties

Beyond the essential nutrients (Calcium, Iron, and Fiber), and the guarantee of being low in calories and with no added sugar, Kobane has passed laboratory tests with surprising results in the human body.

Two pre- and post-prandial tests were conducted over two days, demonstrating that the drink possesses a valuable normoglycemic property. This means its consumption helps regulate blood sugar levels, making it a highly functional option for a wide segment of the population.

🌎 Towards the Conquest of New Markets

The year 2025 marks a milestone for Kobane on its path to full expansion:

• Trademark Registration: In 2025, Kobane officially becomes a Registered Trademark in Colombia, protecting its identity and value.

• INVIMA Registration: Obtaining the INVIMA Registration in December 2025 grants it the health license to be legally commercialized throughout Colombia.

Kobane's ambition transcends borders. The ingredients used are approved by the U.S. FDA, opening the door to commercialization in the North American giant. Furthermore, there is already tangible interest from importers in European countries such as Belgium and Germany, and the Central American region, such as Costa Rica.

💼 An Invitation to Invest in the Future

Kobane has proven to be not only a successful product but also a platform for development and innovation. The brand is already working on expanding its portfolio with three additional flavors that are being developed under the same non-negotiable pillars of the project: sustainability, agroecology, and health.

With a proven formula, a growing market, and export potential, Kobane is seeking investors who want to be part of the present and future of functional and natural beverages, a category experiencing exponential global demand.
