THE STORY BEHIND TENNERGY

What started as a group of local entrepreneurs with a vision to create Tennessee’s go-to energy drink quickly became something much bigger. TENNERGY wasn’t just about making a drink—it was about making a difference. We wanted to give back to our community by empowering student-athletes, not just with the typical NIL deals, but by making them shareholders and teaching them how to build and sustain a business from the ground up.

Instead of just offering sponsorships, we gave these athletes an opportunity to learn the real-world skills they’ll need after sports. They became part of TENNERGY, learning firsthand how to market, promote, and grow a brand. This unique approach set us apart, and soon, the response across Tennessee exceeded our expectations. TENNERGY became not only a product but a platform for athletes to prepare for their future.

We realized that our vision had grown. TENNERGY wasn’t just about a fantastic-tasting energy drink—it was about creating a lasting impact. By equipping these athletes with business knowledge and real-world experience, we’re helping them lay the foundation for success long after their playing days are over.

TENNERGY is a movement rooted in Tennessee pride and Empowerment. We fuel our communities with clean energy and provide our athletes with tools to thrive in the real world.

We believe success is measured by the legacy you leave, and together, we’re building something that will last.
