Throughout the past months one of the most common questions asked is, "Where are we heading with the Beverage Pouch Group and PPiTechGROUP machinery brands?"
We have spent the past 18 months explaining that the Beverage Pouch Group [BPG] is a unique company in that it markets beverages in its own patented sustainable, green, eco-friendly pouches filled on PPiTechGROUP machinery all over the world. A one of a kind company!
You are all probably aware that this past month Shot Spirits Corporation [SSPT.pk] changed hands with Greenbridge Industries acquiring 51% and thus management control and they will, when the dust settles and the various agreements are completed, own 15% of the Beverage Pouch Group. Within BPG we see this as a very positive alliance and we have not sold our stock in SSPT.pk as we believe only good things can come from this new venture.
The biggest brand in BPG is ShotPak® our nine ready-to-drink products are now available in California, Nevada, Texas, Ohio, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee and Indiana. The next dimension..... is the launch in the first quarter of 2010 of thirteen more ShotPak® products bringing the product line to 22 under the theme "Take your best Shot!"
Just released by the BPG VinoPaq™ division is a double gusset BarrelPaQ® wine pouch with tap that replaces the traditional and environment unfriendly bag-in-a-box package. The next dimension.... for VinoPaq® is that they will not only sell these patented "Bag-without-a-Box™" pouches to wineries all over the world, but also buy wines packed in our pouches from our customers and sell them in other regions including the USA. The proverbial double whammy!
Starting to bubble within BPG is our patented CarboPouch® for draft beers sold cold at stadium or celebrity events. A truly unique invention, that keeps draft beer fresh, uncontaminated and safe. The next dimension.... is the development of the shelf stable CarboPouch® and a post application HandiTap2 opening device. The beginning of the end of glass packaging.
Personal health has never been so important and the elixir of life is water. Good water is at a premium. However, bottled water is now perceived by the consumer as wasteful and the BevPaQ™ division is ready to step to the front of this debate with their patented pouch and EnvoSmart™ spout fitment, filled with nutraceutical health water products for men, women and children. These are definitely the next dimension.... in the water category.
The Beverage Pouch Group is ready to become the market leader in each category it sells products into and will be setting the standard for the next dimension.... in eco-friendly, green, pouch packaging.
The PPiTechGROUP machinery has all been redesigned with sustainable SECAMP standards of operation and we offer flexible, fast and efficient systems with pouch material from FlexSource™ USA.
The PPiTechGROUP machinery division offers the top-of-the-line premade or form-fill-seal systems and their next dimension.... electronic machines that are intelligent and run without operators. The machines fill directly onto returnable store shelving, without any secondary packaging, a really green, sustainable, eco-friendly solution.
So where are we going? What's the next dimension? .... For our brands, we as a small, family-owned entrepreneurial business have done much in the past 15 years, but as we look ahead we still can't stop our enthusiasm from showing. We have strong, unique, sustainable, eco-friendly green pouch solutions that are needed in every country in the world and we have plans to exploit our technology and go global with several joint ventures in 2010.
