Ghost Energy is rotating a fresh Costco variety box into warehouses, giving Costco members a mixed 18-can case instead of a single-flavor buy. The latest bundle centers on Welch’s Grape-Cran, bringing one of the brand’s collaborations into the club-store format alongside cans from its regular lineup.
Each flavor gets six cans, and Blue Raspberry stays in the mix for members who want one familiar option next to the Welch’s tie-in. The box sells for $27.99 at Costco, which works out to $1.56 per can.
Costco placement turns Ghost’s rotating variety cases into an easier trial format for members who do not want a full case of one flavor. The changing box also keeps collaborations like Welch’s Grape-Cran active in bulk retail, widening what warehouse energy-drink shoppers expect from club packs.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Warehouse Variety Packs
- Mixed bulk cases are reshaping club-store beverage shopping by reducing single-flavor commitment and expanding trial within high-volume purchases.
- Collaboration Flavor Extensions
- Licensed taste partnerships can stay relevant longer when they move from limited drops into accessible multipack retail formats.
- Rotating Bulk Assortments
- Changing case lineups create recurring novelty in warehouse channels, turning routine stock-up trips into discovery-driven beverage moments.
Sectors Adopting This
- Energy Drinks
- Performance beverage brands have room to differentiate through multipack curation that balances familiar core flavors with buzzworthy collaborations.
- Warehouse Retail
- Club retailers can elevate bulk value perceptions by offering variety-led formats that feel more flexible than traditional single-SKU cases.
- Licensed Food and Beverage
- Brand collaborations across packaged drinks and nostalgic flavor IP present opportunities for wider distribution beyond limited-edition launches.
