ABOUT US
A Haitian original.Since 1977.
Cola Lacaye is more than a soda — it is a symbol of Haitian culture, community, and pride. Founded by Rigobert Richardson, every bottle carries a legacy of quality and authenticity.
Rigobert Richardson
Founder, Cola Lacaye
In 1977, Rigobert Richardson set out with a bold vision: create a soda brand that would represent Haitian identity and bring people together. What started as a dream became a cultural movement.
OUR STORY
From one bottle to a national brand
Cola Lacaye began as a way to bring authentic Haitian flavor to communities far from home. Over nearly five decades, the brand has grown from a local favorite to a nationally distributed soda available across multiple U.S. states — without ever losing its soul.
Today, Cola Lacaye is produced by The Brooklyn Bottling Group, a modern production partner that helps the brand reach new shelves while protecting what makes it special: real flavor, real quality, and a deep connection to Haitian culture.
