Indeed, there is something that is not exactly right in the numbers you are bringing up. To be fair, different information are scattered around, between the profil page, the deck and the updates so let me recap for you. In Year 1, we did sell 900 cases which was equivalent to $80k, and in Year 2 (2017) we are at 3000+ cases which equals to $280k. The reason why the $/bottle varies is that we have been in a hybrid self-distribution/wholesaler model in NY. So we make a lot more margin selling direct to retailers and less selling wholesale. We're finalizing the numbers for the year and I'll know what the blended $/bottle price is but to give you an idea we sell $5.66/bottle to the distributor and $8 through self-distribution. Also, between SRP and sales price per bottle remember the distributors takes minimum 30% margin and retailers take between 35 and 70% (especially in NY where rents vary so much).

It's always hard to predict at what case level an alcohol brand becomes acquirable, as it depends on the quality of its distribution network, the brand equity and what's around it (i.e. Casamigos sold at 40x revenues). Some M\u0026amp;A specialists say offers start coming in at 25,000 cases, but we want to reach 100,000 cases in 5-7 years . Recent wine buyout multiples have been between 5 and 8x revenues so: 100,000 cases = $8M revenue = 40 and $80M valuation. You're now investing at $2,5M pre-money so that would be at 24x return if we sold the company for $60M. Hope this answers your question. Cheers!

Very bullish on the UK market and launching next summer! We are in talks with 2 large distributors, and also in negotiation to have a celebrity endorse the brand there. Luckily, we found a brand manager whose a real hustler and who is very, very passionate about the brand. He's looking to partner with us in the long term and agreed to be paid on commission only. I already spoke with distributors in HK but I would love to take a closer look into Asia in general. Lot of opportunities, not enough time and ressources... I know your question excluded France but I will still say: For obvious reasons, I had to found a distributor there but overtime we've performed 3 different focus groups and the product was extremely well received. The market is super competitive and margins are very small. It is a volume play and a supermarkets are the way to go. The advantage for us to do volumes will be to bring our costs down in order to make more margin in core markets like the US and the UK (hedge opportunity with EURUSD?) I see you are from Germany and without knowing the market too well, I feel like it is a pretty similar market to France in the sense of volume and lower price point. I would be more than happy to be more educated on it. As far as EUR/USD is concerned, it is a pretty recent issue and I haven't looked for a solid solution.

This is one of my favorite questions :) You are absolutely right rosé tends to be seasonal therefore harder to sell during the winter months (just as red wine is harder to sell during summer btw). There are 4 main ways we will generate revenue outside of summer: 1. Launch of a Sparkling rosé for this coming OND (October, November, December). Another rose you might say, yes but sparkling equals bubbles which equals holidays. Not only sales of sparkling wines reach a peak during that celebratory time of the year but sparkling wines in general are more of an all year round item. 2. Go after warmer weather markets. Since rose is tied to sunny weather, we will put our efforts into states like California, Florida, and keep pushing Texas. These states also happen to be the biggest chains markets which means volume. 3. Extending the line to red and white wine. I believe this year would have been a bit early to release these types of wines as I want to keep establishing Maison Marcel with rosé and its associated lifestyle but I have already sourced white and red wines and will reassess the launch around summer 2018. My main consideration is whether or not it makes sense from a brand perspective. 4. That's a big, exciting idea and one which would require a lot more funding but developing an e-commerce with a mix of curated and proprietary products would not only beat seasonality but also state by state roll out. Of course, like every online business, we would need to work on customer acquisition but let's say an instagram with nearly 40k followers is a good start.
