Peace Tea® Canada | Happy & Refreshing Iced Tea




It's no secret I recently aquired peace.ca and in my quest to do some research I stumbled across peace-tea.ca, which looks like an interesting site.

The first thought I had when I saw the hyphonated domain name is that peacetea.ca was not available to register. Imagine my surprise when I found the domain to be available and unregistered by the PeaceTea company. How is it possible they did not secure their brand? Even if they made the decision to run with a hyphenated name to separate the two words why would they not spend the extra 10 bucks to secure the non hyphenated version and then forward it over to their product.

Sometimes I wonder how some of these companies even have a web presence and what the thought process was.

More research: Home is owned by coca-cola and they also run under PeaceTea.com

OMG what is going on!!
 
To make it even worse:

Text Box:
https://peacetea.com - returns an error

https://www.peacetea.com - works


Again.... Huh, who designs this stuff?
