ASCC Seeks to Add New Brands Through Mergers & Acquisitions

Business Wire
With two new vodka brands scheduled to begin production in the
coming weeks, 2013 is set to be a year of major growth for the
Aristocrat Group Corp. (OTCBB: ASCC) and its brand management
division, Luxuria Brands. The company announced today that it is
now pursuing new brand asset acquisitions and corporate mergers to
facilitate additional expansion this summer.
“While we prepare for the official debut of our first two vodka
brands, we’re also evaluating outside brands that could further
compliment the Luxuria Brands portfolio,” said CEO Robert
Federowicz. “We’re particularly interested in working with
individuals and companies who own or distill spirits that might
benefit from our development assistance and access to the public
markets.”
ASCC plans to initially target the fast-growing super-premium
vodka segment, which has risen 32 percent in the last two years to
$1.2 billion, according to industry trade group the Distilled
Spirits Council (DISCUS). ASCC’s debut vodka will be distilled in
the USA by Distilled Resources, Inc. (DRinc), which produces
neutral spirits using quality ingredients including Idaho russet
potatoes, organic grains and Idaho winter wheat.
ASCC sees vodka, America’s best-selling spirit, as the key
element to growing its brand management division, Luxuria Brands.
The success of the endeavor will allow the company to compete in a
highly profitable sector alongside Limited Brands, Inc. (NYSE:
LTD), Proctor & Gamble (NYSE: PG), New York & Company, Inc.
(NYSE: NWY) and Chico's FAS, Inc. (NYSE: CHS).
