carcosa really good question. Glass moulding is outsourced, distribution is also outsourced. Production cycle is relatively long as a supermarket will say we want 10,000 cases, say 3 months before shelve time. i.e orders for Christmas start in September/October. Cash is required which we know there is roughly a million in cash.

Over time since DG has been CEO growth has been organic and I do not think there have been any issues to date and neither do I think there are any bottle necks going forward.

Lets see what we are told in the half yearly report October.

Recently seen carrefour is selling it which is potentially a extra 12,000 stores much larger than our current base

[a_2_b] 27/8/2018 11:11

More fool you I think the interims will be excellent if they announce a us distributor in coming months then we shall see glorious highs again

[a_2_b] 27/8/2018 10:35

No idea but I do believe it was upped a few year ago with plan to accommodate stocking the US

As a relatively new shareholder and not having been able to find specifics in the AR can anyone advise what are the production capacity restraints for the brands are in the near future?

Ramping pig you've been on the rum to much ! 2p coming very soon

[mrdollarbill] 27/8/2018 08:37

In my opinion 2p will be seen again over the coming weeks with this stock

[mrdollarbill] 27/8/2018 08:36

My charts indicate a mini spike has happened over last few weeks and in my opinion it will find the 2p level again over the coming weeks . IVE SOLD MY ENTIRE HOLDING HERE DUE TO THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And which other countries with local Carrefours will also be stocking it.

[berny3] 27/8/2018 07:37

A2b also ask how many stores it is available in?

[a_2_b] 26/8/2018 22:27

I've messaged carrefour asking how long they've been stocking red leg if I get a answer I will post up here

[mudis] 26/8/2018 20:41

Redleg will be exhibiting on Rum Fest 2018.

[berny3] 26/8/2018 19:02

Well scratch my over doubling listings comment. With 12k stores what's that like x4-x5 what we're currently doing, that's mental I guess they have the supply behind them but honestly I'm shocked by that.

[a_2_b] 26/8/2018 10:33

Just had a little look at carrefour wow low and behold it's on their rhum products list well that's another 12,000 stores :O. Other than France they're also in dubai too, probs elsewhere too. They've re recently signed a strategic alliance with tesco too. This may be getting saved for the interims, but good find that well done. Must definitely be twitching some blinkers now with our increased exposure awesome.

[dante17] 26/8/2018 09:58

I can't for the life of me understand why Carrefour accepting RedLeg in all its stores all over France didn't warrant an RNS. This is massive and yet no specific announcement could be made?

[a_2_b] 25/8/2018 18:42

And the fact that have probably over doubled the amount of retail and pub chains we are available in

[a_2_b] 25/8/2018 18:40

Nice to see redleg still in the top 5s on amazon interim should be a blissful read

[2mex] 24/8/2018 23:05

May be needed on Tuesday morning


Hope this helps

[mudis] 24/8/2018 22:08

As mentioned above, Distil successfully entered the French rum market early in 2018 and has achieved listings with one of the major hypermarket and supermarket operators.

This is what i am interested most in h1 results. Hopefully will get some update

Hi-Spirits Blackwoods UK distributor


Edit. Blackwoods still showing up here

Also

[mr angry] 24/8/2018 20:13

Blackwoods is no longer on Winebow group list of brands, don't know if anyone else has noticed that.
