Satisfying current consumer needs and continuous development play an exclusive role in the development of HELL’s energy drink portfolio. In addition to the classic (32 mg / 100 ml caffeine, tutti-frutti flavour) energy drink, innovative products such as HELL STRONG with a +20 percent caffeine content recommended for extreme use or the sugar-free HELL Zero product family are also available under the umbrella of the brand.
Following the trends, the company’s mission is to produce functional drinks that contain extra ingredients in addition to the usual ingredients from energy drinks. To this end, HELL STRONG FOCUS was born in 2017, with a total of 11 ingredients (including magnesium and L-carnitine).
The HELL ICE COFFEE iced coffee brand was launched by HELL ENERGY company on domestic market in 2019 with 3 product variants, and barely a year after its introduction, it became the first in the Hungarian retail market of ready-to-drink iced coffees, both in terms of value and number of units sold. The brand has held this position since November 2020, and has even been able to strengthen its domestic dominance since then.

The sales activity of HELL ENERGY has been supported from the beginning by a unique marketing activity. The first step in the international expansion was the two-year cooperation with the AT&T Williams Formula 1 team in 2009, with which HELL ENERGY was the first Hungarian company and the second among energy drinks to be the sponsor of the Formula 1 world.
The year 2018 marked another milestone for the brand, with a unique advertising campaign starring Hollywood star Bruce Willis.
Since then, HELL has extended its partnership with the Hollywood superstar twice, in 2020 and 2022. In the 2020 commercial, Willis promoted HELL ICE COFFEE, the new product line debuting at the time, alongside HELL Classic, and was joined by Miss Universe-winning model-actress Zuleyka Rivera, known from the “Despacito” video.
