Glasgow
Distillery signs distribution deal in
France with Dugas which will see its
1770 Glasgow Single Malt Whisky
distributed throughout France.
 The Glasgow Distillery Company has
announced that they have signed a new
international distribution deal with
French drinks specialists, Dugas.
The deal will see Glasgow Distillery’s
inaugural whisky - 1770 Glasgow Single
Malt Scotch Whisky - distributed
throughout France, giving consumers in
the country an exclusive opportunity to
purchase a bottle of the whisky
in-store, which was launched to the
general public online earlier this year.
Dugas will work with a number of
off-trade stockists looking for unique,
high-quality spirits, to ensure the malt
is on the shelves of France’s premier
cavistes.
Dugas has built its reputation on the
ability to discover new brands, and its
ability to support them as they grow.
The Dugas Company’s portfolio is
renowned, and includes many premium
Scotch whiskies.
The deal was cemented at the Club Expert
trade show in Paris, which is hosted
annually by Dugas and welcomes over
1,000 guests in the drinks trade, where
François-Xavier Dugas, CEO of Dugas, and
Liam Hughes, CEO of The Glasgow
Distillery Company, put pen to paper on
the agreement.
Founded in 2012, and the city’s first
independent single malt whisky
distillery since 1902, Glasgow
Distillery draws on the pioneering
spirit of Scotland’s first licensed
distillers. In the six years since it
was established, the distillery has
already generated international acclaim
for its Makar Gin range, including
awards at the prestigious Gin Masters
and San Francisco World Spirits
Competition, having invested in the
finest equipment, ingredients, and team
of innovative young distillers.
Liam Hughes, CEO and co-founder of The
Glasgow Distillery Company, said: "We’re
thrilled to sign the distribution deal
for 1770 Glasgow Single Malt Scotch
Whisky, and are excited to partner with
Dugas to widen our reach in France.
"Dugas has an exceptional portfolio of
brands that we are proud to be in the
company of, and its track record of
success made partnering with them the
obvious choice. The work they do to
build strong relationships between
brands and stockists is exactly what we
are looking for, and from the beginning,
we’ve been filled with confidence in
their dynamic approach.
"We’re looking forward to seeing our
bespoke-designed bottles stocked in some
of France’s premier cavistes, giving
even more people the chance to savour
1770.”
Of course you do not have to go all the
way to France to get hold of Glasgow
Distillery's whisky and gin offerings,
you will find them available from specialist online whisky
retailers such as
