About Propel

Propel is a zero-calorie electrolyte water launched in 2000 under the Gatorade umbrella, aimed at people who exercise but do not want the sugar of a sports drink. It effectively created the enhanced water category. PepsiCo owns it, and the format has since been copied widely by both beverage companies and supplement brands.
