April 29, 2019 - Regulation CF, the reg that made small scale Crowd funding (up to $1.07 million annually) legal, requires issuers like us to file an Annual Report with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Wefunder is very helpful with both the preparation - by providing us with fill in the blanks forms - and the actual filing with the SEC. One of those required blanks is titled "Message to Investors". We thought it appropriate to share with our community of owners and potential owners.

Message to Investors:

We made major strides in 2018. We completed the acquisition of Jersey Artisan Distilling - the producer of James FC Hyde Sorgho Whiskey. We nearly tripled orders vs 2017, AND simultaneously increased our supply of aging Sorgho Whiskey inventory from under $500,000 (at wholesale value) to over $600,000. We entered key markets of California, Texas and Florida (the top three spirits markets in U.S.). California and Texas are demonstrating early market traction fueling our growth rate. Looking forward into 2019, while we love Reg CF and truly believe having a large number of committed and loyal owners / investors is an operating asset, a priority for 2019 will be to attract a strategic institutional investor.​
