Commenting on IRX, Pure Lime Brand Manager Jesper Dyrmose said “The International Running Expo marks an exciting step forward in our journey to expand Pure Lime’s brand presence across Europe.

Dyrmose continued, “We’re especially interested in expanding into new European markets and are actively looking for distribution partners who believe in quality, inclusivity, and long-term relationships. We believe great things happen when brands and partners come together with a shared vision. We can’t wait to see what kind of connections and conversations the International Running Expo will spark.”
