welcome to Sousa!

a place of strength and recovery

Named for a sun-drenched beach town on the Mediterranean, Sousa, (once named for Apollo, Greek god of light and healing) has historically been a place of renewal and recovery. For centuries, travelers, athletes and seafarers have drawn strength here from the land and sea. A dynamic port city with unique energy, Sousa has always been a place of resilience.

To pay tribute to that spirit of revitalization, we created Sousa Protein + Hydration, a modern recovery drink mix that delivers both protein for muscle repair and electrolytes for hydration. It’s built to restore your body after its toughest challenges, with high quality ingredients and natural flavors. From the shores of the Med to your everyday grind, Sousa is your connection to a tradition of strength, recovery, and performance.

who we are:

Sousa was founded by Idris Gettani, a Wharton MBA and nutrition creator @doosifit, and Trevor Hyman, a former Division 1 soccer player at Stanford. Our founders’ values reflect Sousa’s: strength through consistency, resilience on hard days, simplicity over noise, honesty in how we show up, and a welcoming community where everyday growth is celebrated.
