5-hour ENERGY Seals First Soccer Player Endorsement with Peralta Signing

Living Essentials, the distributor of 5-hour ENERGY shots, today announced the sponsorship of Mexican soccer star Oribe Peralta.

Peralta is a striker for the Mexican National Team and MX Santos Laguna team, a top scorer in the CONCACAF Champions League, and the 2013 CONCACAF Player of the Year.  This is the first time 5-hour ENERGY has worked with a professional soccer player.

“We are thrilled to have Oribe Peralta as part of 5-hour ENERGY®’s growing roster of world-class athletes,” said Scott Henderson, president, Living Essentials.  “With 2014 being a World Cup year, this is an exciting time for us to work with a world-class athlete in this hugely popular sport.  We see a lot of promise and future in the Mexican National Team led by Oribe Peralta.”

“I’ve been telling the guys on the field that 5-hour ENERGY helps me stay alert, and I’m looking forward to sharing that with a much larger audience,” said Peralta.  “Between traveling all over the world playing soccer and keeping up with my kids, my energy and focus levels must be at their best.”
