Idea
Introduction
The taste of tomorrow starts today; at Salcombe Distilling Co., we’re on a mission to bring exceptional taste to the world.

Our business was born out of a desire to create world-class spirits and a genuine and long-standing passion for the sea and lifestyle on and around the water. With 'Salcombe Gin' and our non-alcoholic spirit 'New London Light', we aim to elevate above craft, go far beyond Salcombe and create an emotive connection with our consumers, enabling them to enjoy special moments of escape and luxury.

We're proud to have:
- Carved out a high gross margin position in the ultra-premium spirits market*
- Achieved 100% growth in the past 2 years despite the challenges of the pandemic*
- Built 1% for the Ocean partnerships with leading marine conservation charities
Our brands are positioned to be distinct from other spirits brands with positioning that is ambitious, adventurous and aspirational. We aim to transcend other ‘premium’ brands, as the luxury aspirational alternative.

Monetisation strategy
We have four main rich revenue channels that are supported by our super-premium brand positioning for Salcombe Gin and New London Light;
1. UK Sales to wholesale, on & off-trade, 3rd party eCommerce and other corporate clients; c. 52% of revenues*
2. Direct sales to consumers (via our website, events and retail stores in Salcombe & Dartmouth); c. 26% of revenues*
3. Export and Duty-Free Sales; c. 12% of revenues*
4. Our award-winning Gin School, tasting experiences and waterside bar; c. 10% of revenues and supports our brand*
With this funding round, we intend to take advantage of the huge opportunity in the No & Low sector by capitalising on our recently extended New London Light range, both in the UK and selected export markets, by investing in promotion and sales. Alongside this, we plan to build on our luxury brand positioning of Salcombe Gin to further expand our UK Sales and leverage the excellent foundations created in the US with our distributors.
