Upon founding the Company in 2014, all execution has been rooted in intent, from our deliberately designed brand portfolio to our recent public listing. I am proud of the team’s execution that has led to this milestone, and I look forward to working hand in hand with our incredible team of operators and industry experts to expand our presence in the spirits industry."
