The executive leadership of the Aristocrat Group Corp. wowed buyers at the Texas Bar & Nightclub Alliance Convention last week, securing distribution into two of the nation’s largest metropolitan markets.
At the TBNA Convention, which featured over 500 buyers and vendors from throughout Texas, ASCC continued its efforts to increase brand awareness of its American-made spirit, RWB Ultra-Premium Handcrafted Vodka. The Company secured a deal with major national retailer Spec's Wine, Spirits and Finer Food Stores to carry RWB Vodka in stores in the San Antonio and Austin metropolitan areas.
The seventh largest city in the United States with almost 1.5 million residents, San Antonio is a premier market to introduce the gluten-free RWB Vodka. Austin, meanwhile, ranks No. 11 in U.S. population with almost 900,000 residents. Spec's already carries RWB Vodka at various Houston locations as well as select stores in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex.
"The TBNA Convention allowed us to meet with the top distilled spirits buyers and vendors in Texas and make crucial contacts as we build our brand," ASCC CEO Robert Federowicz said. "Distribution into San Antonio and Austin continues our initiative to market and distribute RWB Vodka on a national scale and builds positive momentum going forward."
ASCC is working to build a portfolio of successful brands to compete in a highly profitable sector alongside LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (OTCBB: 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 Luxuria Brands, its brand management division.
