SponsorsOne to Add Direct To Consumer ("DTC") Sales Channel for Distilled Spirits

Initial Product Line Will Be Its Exclusive Line Of Doc Wylder's Spirits; eCommerce Store Planned To Open Mid-January 2021 And Will Ship DTC In 31 States

WATERLOO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / January 4, 2021 / SponsorsOne Inc., (CSE:SPO)(Frankfurt:5SO)(OTC PINK:SPONF), a company that utilizes its proprietary platform that combines digital marketing, wholesale and retail distribution, branding, and operational & funding capital, giving it a competitive first-mover advantage in rapidly selling proprietary brands focused in the Alcohol, Functional Beverage and Hemp Sectors, announced today it plans to open its direct to consumer ("DTC") store mid-January with its flagship product Doc Wylder's.

SponsorsOne's wholly-owned subsidiary Premier Beverage Consortium LLC ("PBC") will launch a fully integrated eCommerce site built with Shopify, allowing eligible purchasers to purchase our exclusive brands direct. PBC has developed a complete warehousing, fulfillment, and direct shipping platform with external complaint providers. PBC plans to offer exclusive products online direct to consumers allowing us to build communities around each Brand

Doc Wylder's product in a 4 pack, 8 pack, and 15 pack will be the first offering directly to consumers. Under the rules, 10 states legally allow DTC sales of distilled spirits, including Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Kentucky, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Rhode Island, and Washington, D.C., as well as military bases. For the other 21 States, licensed retailers are used to fulfill the DTC orders. Currently, DTC channels for wineries is considered a mature channel. Only three states do not allow direct shipping from wineries, Alabama, Mississippi and Utah. According to data from Sovos Ship Compliant and Wines Vines Analytics, the DTC wine channel grew by 7.4% in 2019 to $3.2 billion. To help put this in perspective Statista is projected that the entire U.S. Whisky category will be $16.6 billion in 2020. They are projecting the entire spirits category to have $76.8 billion in total revenue. DTC for Distilled Spirits is currently in its infancy stage and PBC intends to lead in the DTC category leveraging its premium Brands that are under development in-house and the use of the SponsorCoin platform for building online communities around each Brand.

Myles Bartholomew, CEO of SponsorsOne, said: "We have created relationships which make us compliant in 31 States. With our internal team of brand builders and content creators, we expect to premiere every Brand direct to the consumer while leveraging influencers as the key marketing channel."
