Splash Beverage Group Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire Western Son Vodka
11 Settembre 2023 - 3:29PM
via NewMediaWire - Splash Beverage Group, Inc. (NYSE American:
SBEV) (“Splash” or the “Company”), a portfolio company of leading
beverage brands, today announced it has executed a Letter of Intent
(“LOI”) to acquire JEM Beverage Management Company, LLC, owners of
the brand Western Son Vodka. Terms of the transaction have
not been disclosed as they are subject to reaching a definitive
agreement.
Western Son Vodka, founded in 2011 is headquartered in Pilot
Point, Texas, with a production and distribution campus spanning
more than 150,000 square feet. Over the last twelve months
Western Son Vodka has sold approximately 309,000 9-liter cases of
vodka. Distilled 10X and made with 100% American corn, the
award-winning portfolio includes a Best-in-Class Original Vodka and
is a four-time winner of Impact’s Spirits Hot Brand Award.
Speaking of the acquisition, Robert Nistico, Chief Executive
Officer of Splash Beverage Group, said, “This acquisition is a
significant step forward in our growth strategy. Led by our
president & CMO Bill Meissner, we began speaking with Western
Son in 2022, familiarizing ourselves with the organization to best
strategize the integration with Splash. When the transaction
is complete, this will be our largest acquisition to date, and it
falls withing the range of acquisition targets we outlined in our
recent acquisition Credit Facility announcement as we move down the
acquisition path. Splash Beverage will bring sales and
marketing support to Western Son and Western’s distillery and the
shipping campus will establish a centralized production and
distribution hub for Splash’s existing brands, Pulpoloco and SALT
Tequila in addition to any future acquisitions, creating logistics
cost savings in favorable shipping lanes, reducing freight out
expense and ultimately increasing margins. We believe this
acquisition will help accelerate both the depth and breadth of
distribution for all the brands involved.
“On a personal note, I would like to take one moment to remember
and honor all Americans and our friends who lost or sacrificed
their lives on this day in 2001. We will never forget.”
Carlos Guillem, President of Western Son Vodka,
commented, “The agreement between Splash and Western Son
represents an exciting opportunity for the brand and the entire
team. Our focus has been on creating and delivering the
highest quality vodka to the market, and this represents a major
step in our journey. The leadership, expertise, and capital
that Splash Beverage can bring to the table, will allow Western Son
to expand its reach to more consumers.”
