According to a report in Altassets magazine, our client Stock Spirits is up for sale, with an asking price of around £1bn. Stock manufactures branded spirits from sites in central Europe, including its best-selling Czysta de Luxe and Orzel vodkas.

Stock is owned by investment company Oaktree Capital, who are apparently keen to cash in on the progress that Stock has been able to make over the past few years.

Stock was just beginning its remarkable transformation when we helped the company revitalise and define its logo and logo useage. We also designed and built ten websites for the various operating companies around Europe, all with a common look and feel, but allowing for regional differences, one of the most important of which was language. Several of the sites allow viewing in two languages, some in three, but everything has that consistent and high-quality look that Stock were aiming for.

We’d like to think that at least some of that £1billion is down to the classy websites we provided for each of the group companies.

Stock Spirits – Award-winner expands

Stock Spirits, the internationally-focused manufacturer of branded drinks, now has a set of 10 websites, including national sites covering all their existing and new sales territories.

Italy, Poland, the Czech Republic, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Slovenia, USA, are all national areas covered by the set of Wild West-designed and implemented web sites. And then there are sites dedicated to the work of Stock Spirits Group, and International Sales.

For a company that has only existed for a few years, they have come a long way in a very short time.

What is possibly more remarkable is that Stock are able to maintain and update all their sites through an implementation of ModX open-source software. The software allows Stock staff in the UK and in the international territories to amend their sites as they need, adding press releases, posting new packaging or bottle shots, and of course, adding to the range of Stock cocktail recipes which are suggested throughout the Stock Spirits group site. Since all of the national sites are provided in two, and sometimes three, languages maintenance would otherwise have been a big task.

Wild West undertakes periodic ‘refresher’ training to help get new staff up to speed and to ensure that all staff who need to have up to date skills.
