Starling Corporate is proud to present a highly distinctive and established operator within the premium drinks sector. This sale represents a unique acquisition opportunity: a unified, scalable brand built on the foundations of a successful multi-channel business with a peak turnover in excess of £1m.
Our client is an alcoholic drinks brand with its own harbour-side bar and kitchen in St Ives, Cornwall. The business retails a range of premium gins, liqueurs and ready-to-drink (RTD) cocktails both directly to consumers via its website and wholesale to other businesses. This is complemented by a physical restaurant presence: a flagship in St Ives Harbour, alongside a pop-up kitchen operating locally. This hybrid model of direct-to-consumer sales, wholesale distribution and physical hospitality venues creates a resilient and diversified revenue base with significant untapped growth potential.
The Company was founded in 2015 and is currently owned by the managing family, with each member holding a 20% shareholding. All shareholders are seeking to explore new opportunities and are open to discussions regarding a handover period to ensure a smooth transition for the incoming acquirer.
The sale of this brand represents a rare opportunity to acquire a premium, scalable operation with a multi-channel revenue model, a prime physical location and an authentic story deeply rooted in one of the UK’s most desirable locations.
