MARTIN MILLER’S GIN LEAVES SKYY FOR KINDRED SPIRITS

U.S. importer Kindred Spirits struck a deal to import and market British-based Martin Miller’s Gin and Martin Miller’s Westbourne Strength Gin, effective January 1. The Miami-based company will take over responsibility from Skyy Spirits who have developed the brand in the U.S. market over the past few years.

“At this stage in Martin Miller’s development it was clear that the brand would benefit from the close attention and integrated sales and marketing push that Kindred is amply equipped to provide,” said Martin Miller’s Gin co-founder David Bromige. “Skyy Spirits built incredible buzz around the brand and we now look forward to a new phase of growth with Kindred Spirits,” he added.
