Business Description
Acquire an established premium ready-to-drink cocktail brand with a functioning commercial platform, recurring distributor customers, outsourced production infrastructure, and a growing sales history.

Founded in 2020, the company earns 100% of its revenue from wholesale cocktail sales to licensed alcohol distributors. Seven licensed distributors support retail sales, while an additional fulfillment distributor handles e-commerce orders. All distributor customers are recurring. The product reaches grocery stores, liquor stores, restaurants, bars, hotels, and online consumers, with an established relationship with Total Wine & More. The e-commerce platform can ship to consumers in 46 states.

The product portfolio centers on premium vodka-based ready-to-drink cocktails packaged in 200ml glass bottles at 14% ABV. Approximately 80% of sales come from the flagship Espresso Martini, with the balance from other flavors. Current revenue-producing products include Espresso Martini, Passionfruit Martini, and Basil Lemondrop. Additional federally approved Dirty Martini and Spicy Watermelon Martini formulas have not yet been commercially launched. Products are gluten free and dairy free, and the Espresso Martini uses real espresso, vodka, and coffee liqueur. The brand also features a Pour-Shake-Pour preparation concept designed to create a frothy cocktail presentation without a shaker.

Operations are asset-light. Manufacturing and production equipment are provided by a contracted co-packer, while third parties support warehousing and freight. The owner coordinates procurement, production scheduling, distributor relationships, compliance, bookkeeping, inventory, sales, and marketing. QuickBooks Desktop is used for accounting and inventory management on an accrual basis, and physical inventory is reconciled annually. The business has no full-time or part-time employees, and the owner reports approximately 30 hours per week of involvement. A CFO provides year-end accounting oversight, supported by an external accountant.

The acquisition includes approximately $130,000 in inventory, intellectual property, marketing materials, federally approved beverage formulas, licenses and permits, and established supplier, production, and distributor relationships. The seller reports no PPP loans, EIDL loans, or other business debt and no pending legal or compliance issues. Required alcohol licenses are maintained through federal and state authorities, with annual renewals and periodic reporting requirements.

Supplier relationships were selected through competitive price and quality evaluations, and the seller reports established communication with key vendors. The company is also transitioning toward production-on-demand, with the objective of reducing inventory carrying, storage, and production costs while keeping materials available for timely fulfillment.

Growth opportunities identified by the seller include expanding digital, email, social media, and influencer marketing; increasing e-commerce traffic; adding distributor relationships and retail penetration; and launching additional approved cocktail formulas. The existing e-commerce platform also creates the ability to gather customer acquisition, lifetime value, and repeat-purchase data that was not historically available through wholesale channels.

The seller is willing to provide personal transition support covering inventory, digital platforms, operations, industry knowledge, and introductions to the current partner network. For serious, qualified buyers seeking an established beverage platform with existing infrastructure and documented operating history, additional information is available through a confidential, broker-led process. Qualified buyers may inquire for more details.
