LOS ANGELES, June 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Flex Company, creator of the #1 selling alternative period products, today announces its launch into Walgreens stores nationwide, as well as further expansion into Target and CVS, to triple its retail presence since 2019.

Known for its innovative and sustainable menstrual products?the Flex® Disc and Flex® Cup ?The Flex Company is focused on delivering life-changing period products to people everywhere. With this retail expansion into major drugstore chains nationwide, the company is significantly increasing access to alternative period products that are better for our health and the environment with offerings that produce 60% less waste than traditional period products.

Launched as a direct-to-consumer company in 2016, Flex first launched in brick and mortar stores in 2019. After a successful test run in select Target and CVS locations, Flex has now expanded into 8,700+ stores nationwide.

Increasing our availability in retailers furthers our mission to make comfortable periods accessible to all."
