Liquor baron Kishore Chhabria's Allied Blenders & Distillers (ABD) has reportedly acquired the Bengal-based Wales Distilleries for an undisclosed amount, which will help the former to further improve its already strong presence in the state, wherein it has over 21% market share. Wales Distilleries will be ABD's first company owned unit in the Eastern region.
Both the companies association dates back two years when ABD commissioned Wales Distillery to bottle ABD brands. Allied Blenders now plans to further modernize the plant and start producing its entire portfolio of brands. Wales Distilleries' bottling plant currently has a capacity of 1 lakh cases per month and ABD plans to scale it up to 1.5 lakh shortly.
