Neace Ventures战略投资美国白兰地生产商Copper & Kings
美国白兰地生产商Copper & Kings在星座集团出售近一年后，获得私人投资公司Neace Ventures的战略注资（金额未披露）。资金将用于加速品牌下一阶段增长，Neace Ventures将提供资本、专业知识和市场关系支持。Copper & Kings由Joe和Lesley Heron夫妇于2014年创立，位于肯塔基州路易斯维尔，生产波本桶陈酿白兰地。Bourdon Spirits创始人兼CEO表示，自收购以来批发业务已增长30%。
US brandy producer Copper & Kings has secured backing from Neace Ventures nearly a year after its sale by Constellation Brands.
Neace Ventures, a US private investment company, did not disclose the figure, which was described as a "strategic investment" to accelerate the brandy producer's next phase of growth.
The firm's support will include providing capital, expertise and market relationships to boost momentum across priority markets.
Copper & Kings will be able to access Neace Ventures' distribution network across retail, restaurant, hospitality, and on-premise accounts, as well as the firm's hands-on experience in scaling premium brands.
The brandy business was founded by married couple Joe and Lesley Heron in 2014. Its distillery is located in Louisville's Butchertown neighbourhood and produces Bourbon barrel-aged brandy and brandy barrel-finished Bourbon.
Having been purchased outright by Constellation Brands in September 2020, Copper & Kings was sold to Kentucky-based Bourdon Spirits Company last August.
After the acquisition, Bourdon Spirits relaunched the core portfolio in November with a Six-Year American Brandy VSOP, Six-Year American Apple Brandy, and Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
Commenting on the investment, Bourdon Spirits founder and Copper & Kings CEO, Rob Bourdon, said: "John [Neace, founder of Neace Ventures] and his team see what we see. We're building something that lasts."
