Questions, answered
Everything distributors, wholesalers and authorized bottling candidates ask us, gathered in one place so you can decide before you call.
Partnering with Zeros
How do I become a Zeros distributor?
Send the enquiry form on the distributor page with your city and the volume you can realistically move. We reply with pricing, the margin structure and the current position for your area. Dispatch timing is confirmed only after documents, commercial terms, stock and logistics are checked.
What investment does a distributorship need?
It scales with the territory. A single town starts with a modest opening load and a small godown. A district or super stockist position needs working capital for a full replenishment cycle plus a delivery vehicle. We give you a real number for your specific area rather than a range that means nothing.
Do you give exclusive territory rights?
Exclusivity is not created by a form submission. Where an exclusive area is approved, its boundaries, targets and conditions are written into the final agreement. We confirm the current position for your town before asking you to commit.
What paperwork do I need?
A GST registration and PAN in the firm name, an FSSAI registration for trade, and a current bank account. Anyone already distributing food or beverage will have all of it in place.
What is the difference between distribution and authorized bottling?
A distributor services retailers inside an agreed area. A super stockist supplies distributors across a larger agreed market. An authorized bottling candidate is assessed for controlled regional manufacturing. Manufacturing and distribution are separate appointments, and applying creates neither right.
Can I carry other beverage brands as well?
Yes, and most of our partners do. We only ask that you do not carry a directly competing goli soda in the same territory.
The product
What is goli soda?
Goli soda, also known as banta or marble soda, is a carbonated lemon drink sealed by a glass marble held in the neck of the bottle by the gas pressure inside. You push the marble down to open it. It has been sold in India for over a century.
What is the price and the pack size?
A 300 ml bottle packed 12 bottles per crate. Current consumer prices are shown in the shop; trade and distributor terms are shared after enquiry.
Is it vegetarian?
Yes. The bottle carries the green vegetarian mark and the full ingredient declaration is printed on the label.
How do I drink it?
Remove the seal, press the marble down until it drops, mix in the masala sachet as much as you like, and drink it cold. The pop is half the point.
How should stock be stored?
Best enjoyed chilled. Keep it in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening, refrigerate and finish within five days. Do not accept stock where the cap seal is broken.
Supply and orders
What is the minimum order?
It depends on your distance from the Amb plant. Buyers inside Himachal and the Punjab belt can start small because our vehicles already run those routes. Longer distances need enough volume to justify a load. Send your city and we will give you the exact figure.
Which areas do you supply?
Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and the Gorakhpur belt of Uttar Pradesh, all from our unit in Amb. New regions open as capacity allows, so enquire even if you are outside these states.
How is stock delivered?
In coordinated cases on our own vehicles for nearby routes and by booked transport for longer runs. The current Zeros pack uses a 300 ml PET marble bottle.
Can I buy in bulk without becoming a distributor?
Yes. Plenty of traders, hotels, canteens and event suppliers buy in bulk without holding a territory. If your volume grows to where a distributorship would earn you more, we will raise it with you.
