Business Overview

After a dedicated journey of nearly 10 years aimed at refining our products, we proudly present a trio of premium offerings that have garnered prestigious accolades as exemplary spirits of the highest quality. Embarking on the expansion of our brand into new horizons, including exporting to European markets, began around 2 years ago. During the past 15 months, we've successfully translated these preparations into concrete sales figures.

While the customer base remains ripe for expansion, our existing clientele has proven to be a valuable source for both sales and meaningful communication. Evidenced by a steadily increasing growth rate, our firsthand experience confirms the excitement surrounding the reception of our products.

This enthusiasm extends not only to the general consumer base but also captures the discerning palates of experts such as bartenders and beverage directors. This widespread acclaim, including the appreciation from our network of distributors, further underscores the excellence of our offerings.

Products & Services Overview

There are not many differences in sales between the 3 products, the amber Citrus Gin is more pleasant.

The main users are cocktail bars and private consumers and online sales also provide results.

Assets Overview

The leased area where the distillery is located has an area of approx. 460, the instrumental goods necessary for the production are arranged in the room, where there are deposits for aging.

About 6,500 bottles have already been produced for export, and goods currently on the Italian market for a value of EUR 130,000. (price to distributors).

Ownership of recipes and production procedures and processes, including ownership of the global brand, already operational e-commerce site, and logistics management, including assets and distribution links.

Facilities Overview

Leased spaces in Johannesburg, approximately 460 square meters available, including warehouses and aging facilities.

Annual rental costs 43,000 South African rand, or EUR 28,000.

We have no physical facilities in Italy or Spain.

Capitalization Overview

Our production activities for the brand expansion project were fully funded by our 3 current partners, who also own the brand and its recipes. Intensive research and development preceded the current state of our products, which are now ready for market entry after huge investments.

International market expansion efforts began two years ago, with increased investments in marketing. When sales begin, they help support our operations.

The company is made up of three partners, each with a 33% share, for a total investment of EUR 750,000. In particular, our founder and master distiller is among the three partners. The absence of outstanding debt underlines our solid financial foundation and our commitment to growth.
