BOAT TO BRAND

The journey of Goconut, a local brand, began at Oscar’s Junction in Arossim. Today, the iconic coconut boat cart proud stands there — and another sails strong at Delfino’s, in Porvorim.

SIP OF THE SEASON

Since its launch in 2023, Goconut has grown in popularity — making its way to weddings, and other events, as a trendy, healthy refreshment choice.

AISLES TO EVENTS

Goconut made its event debut at the wedding of a local MLA; a Goan first. Since then, wedding bookings have been pouring in. The best way to beat the heat, after all!

COCONUTS ON THE GO

Thanks to a growing demand, Goconut has gone mobile. The mini boat stand brings all the Goan vibes — leaf straws, shell holders, and serious coconut cool — to any event.

NO MORE COCONUT CRISIS

When sourcing coconuts became challenging for hotels, Goconut jumped in to keep hotels and restaurants stocked with fresh, tasty coconuts — no more waiting, just non-stop sips!

ROOTED IN GOA

Born in Goa, Goconut is on a mission to uplift local farmers — turning every part of the coconut tree into opportunity and income.

SIMPLY GOAN

The dream is to go entirely local, but Goa's coconut supply hasn't reached that point yet. For now, Goconut relies on out-of-state suppliers to keep the chill flowing.
