ASCC Targets Explosive $10 Billion Craft Beer Segment
July 30 2013 - 5:00AM
Business Wire
With the Aristocrat Group Corp. (OTCBB: ASCC) poised to begin
distributing the first two in a line of distilled spirit brands,
the company announced today that it is also targeting potential
partnerships and opportunities in the explosive craft beer market
in the U.S.
Craft brewing has enjoyed an incredible run of success in the
last five years, growing in production from 8.5 million barrels in
2008 to 13.2 million in 2012. Craft beer’s share of the $99 billion
U.S. beer market increased to $10.2 billion last year, up from $8.7
billion in 2011.
In order to capture a share of that growth, ASCC is looking to
partner up with established craft brewers looking to maximize their
penetration in the U.S. marketplace. The company plans to add
top-shelf craft brews to its forthcoming distribution deal in Texas
as well as other top markets around the country.
“Texas is at the top of the list in the total number of beer
drinkers as well as beer volume consumed annually,” said ASCC CEO
Robert Federowicz. “We think the state’s potential for growth in
the craft beer segment is nearly unlimited. All we need is the
right partner to capitalize on the explosion in interest in smaller
brewers.”
Craft beer is only one facet of ASCC’s aggressive beverage
distribution strategy. The company is working to build a stable of
successful brands in order to compete in a highly profitable sector
alongside LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (NYSE: LVMUY), Diageo
PLC (NYSE: DEO), BEAM Inc. (NYSE: BEAM) and Brown-Forman Corp.
(NYSE: BF-B). By handling its own distribution business, ASCC hopes
to capitalize on unprecedented new brand building opportunities
through its brand management division, Luxuria Brands.
