Naturally sugar free soft drinks company Nexba Beverages has received the first-ever 2018 Telstra Alumni Achievement Award.

Nexba won the Telstra Australian Micro Business Award in 2015, and has since rolled out into channels like 7-eleven and Domino's, as well as Coles and Woolworths.

The company now has export markets in its sights, and says it has secured a launch with one of the biggest supermarket retailers in the UK.

“The UK has three times the population of Australia and the launch will likely have a huge impact,” Nexba co-founder Drew Bilbe says.

Bilbe received at a Gala Dinner held at the Sofitel Melbourne on Collins last week.
