The First Global Exchange and Inventory Management System for Bulk Aged Spirits Goes Live
SCOTTSDALE, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / January 16, 2025 / Spirits Capital Corporation, a fintech company that integrates technology with the global production, management, and transactional needs of the barrel-aged spirits market, is proud to announce that its Distilled Barrels Financial Exchange ("DBFEX") is officially operational. The platform launches with over 200,000 barrels from multiple distilleries, collectively valued at approximately $400 million. DBFEX also introduces proprietary machine learning technology and a subscription-based SaaS inventory management and compliance tool, creating a transparent and secure exchange for distillers, investors, brokers, and brands to buy and sell barrel-aged spirits.
DBFEX addresses a critical gap in the barrel-aged spirits industry by providing an innovative platform for real-time trading and dynamic valuations of whiskey and other barrel-aged spirits. The platform uses proprietary technology to continuously analyze market data and barrel-specific information, offering optimized price targets for both new-fill and aged barrels.
Ray Franklin, Spirits Capital's Chief Revenue Officer and the executive overseeing DBFEX operations, commented, "We're working closely with independent and branded distilleries, brokers, and institutional investors to onboard inventory into the management software system and onto the DBFEX platform. This collaboration enhances market access and streamlines the entire transaction process."
Todd Sanders, CEO and Chairman of Spirits Capital, added, "Our platform offers disruptive tools, supported by a scalable, cloud-based infrastructure, ensuring the reliability and adaptability needed to respond to evolving market dynamics. Before DBFEX, the buying and selling of barrels were controlled by a limited group of brokers, with pricing determined by the scope of each individual transaction. DBFEX changes the game by offering real-time access to quantities, prices, and valuations to all potential buyers and sellers, ensuring a more transparent and efficient market."
