Barron Trump, the youngest of Donald Trump’s children, was speculated to be entering politics for quite some time, but it turns out he chose a different career.
Namely, the young Trump is one of the five co-founders and directors of Sollos Yerba Mate Inc., which is a newly formed company in the beverage industry, as reported by The Mirror.
Sollos Yerba Mate Inc. is developing a brand of beverages that include yerba mate, which is the most consumed drink in South America and consists of dried leaves and branches of the Ilex paraguariensis plant. The taste of this drink is slightly bitter but it contains high levels of caffeine; thus, it is considered to be a healthier substitute to coffee. Moreover, it is claimed that yerba mate contains higher caffeine levels compared to matcha. During the last few years, it has become increasingly popular in the United States.
Sollos, which is headquartered in Florida, is currently generating buzz for their upcoming release. Recently, the company announced the release through their LinkedIn account, posting promotional videos, such as an image of the drink cans creatively arranged on a surfboard, further emphasizing the casual brand. The startup has announced that the first flavor combo will be pineapple and coconut in the 12-pack. This product is set for release in May 2026, and will be marketed as a summertime beverage associated with a simple, outdoorsy way of life.
According to documents filed by the company and mentioned by sources like the Daily Mail, Barron has been officially named as one of the five directors in the company. The startup itself has been registered in both the state of Florida and the state of Delaware, which is often used by startups to gain maximum benefit and have the opportunity to attract investments. Sollos reportedly already managed to attract $1 million from private investors even without releasing its first product yet.
The company positions itself as a lifestyle-oriented drinks company with an emphasis on functional ingredients that are free of contaminants. In its communications, Sollos associates itself with the culture of South Florida and the year-round outdoor life. According to one of the descriptions of the company on LinkedIn, the idea behind its branding came from being brought up in a warm environment where outdoor pursuits were part of the daily routine. The name “Sollos” has an associated symbolism related to the sun; for example, SOL denotes the morning sun and a beginning, while LOS denotes the evening sun and an ending.
Apart from its marketing strategy, it is worth noting that Sollos has employed a unique method of product development, whereby it has decided to start off by introducing one perfected recipe rather than several varieties at the same time. As was revealed in interviews granted to news agencies, the beverage startup has chosen to put in all its effort in perfecting one type of drink as opposed to developing various types like many beverage startups.https://www.instagram.com/reel/DW4qf8UgNhH/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=728&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fboreddaddy.com&rp=%2Fbarron-trump-announces-unexpected-new-career-move%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwY2xjawRSq7xleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFRSVJGVm5hRTJVM1FYbXRWc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHtbVZz0Mta-zxiSmbsrWCQPmWLTxRGU-DNvW6nqUUBW#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A5189.5999999940395%2C%22ls%22%3A3331.0999999940395%2C%22le%22%3A4604%7D
It is pertinent to note that the drink in question has come at a time when there is a growing demand for natural sources of energy among beverages in the beverage market. Indeed, the use of yerba mate has been gaining popularity in the U.S. owing to its similarities with coffee in terms of stimulation effects despite being more natural or plant-based.
As per reports, Barron Trump, who is currently enrolled at New York University, has been actively involved in creating business plans for the past one year and has worked with his co-founders to develop the vision of the company. He is also believed to have utilized his study period to engage himself in entrepreneurial endeavors and partner with individuals from his personal connections. Several co-founders who hail from Palm Beach and Oxbridge Academy are also reported to be on leave from their educational institutions to concentrate entirely on their firm, whereas Barron still juggles between academics and entrepreneurship.https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWmTlqXDiAe/embed/captioned/?cr=1&v=14&wp=728&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fboreddaddy.com&rp=%2Fbarron-trump-announces-unexpected-new-career-move%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwY2xjawRSq7xleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFRSVJGVm5hRTJVM1FYbXRWc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHtbVZz0Mta-zxiSmbsrWCQPmWLTxRGU-DNvW6nqUUBW#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A5197.9000000059605%2C%22ls%22%3A3331.0999999940395%2C%22le%22%3A4604%7D
The venture itself is in line with other examples of family-based entrepreneurs, where the brand name can help create visibility initially. Though it is unclear how much of the actual business operations Barron takes part in, it is evident that his connection to the firm has attracted significant attention because of his family reputation.
With the planned launch of the brand in 2026, it will not be known how well Sollos will be able to compete in what has become a very competitive beverages market environment. That said, with financial backing already secured, along with a strong branding strategy and growing public interest, Sollos hopes to become a leading beverage brand for today’s lifestyle-oriented consumer.
