Italian vodka producer Altamura Distilleries has entered the Asian market with its namesake brand through distribution partnerships in mainland China and Hong Kong.
The company has appointed Six Days Distro to manage its Hong Kong distribution, while Elire HK will represent the vodka in China, beginning with a debut in Shanghai. The business will then expand to Beijing, Shenzhen and Guangzhou.
“Asia represents one of the most exciting growth opportunities for Altamura Distilleries,” said co-founder James Goggin. “Hong Kong and Shanghai are global hubs for gastronomy, cocktails and luxury culture, and we are delighted to partner with Six Days Distro and Elire HK.”
Last year, the brand entered India through a distribution deal with Delhi-based Amistad Spirits.
