Fever-Tree is the world's leading supplier of premium carbonated mixers for alcoholic spirits by retail sales value, with distribution to approximately 50 countries internationally.

Based in the UK, the brand was launched in 2005 by Charles Rolls and Tim Warrillow to provide high quality, natural mixers which could accompany the growing demand for premium spirits. The Group now sells a range of 12 differentiated flavours to hotels, restaurants, bars and cafes ("On Trade") as well as supermarkets and off-licenses for retail purchase ("Off Trade"). Approximately 70 per cent. of the Group's sales were derived from outside of the UK in FY13 with the key overseas markets being the US, Spain, and Belgium.

The Group's mixers are designed to be accompaniments for alcoholic spirits or used in cocktails, although they can also be consumed on their own. Since 2005, the Company has launched at least one new product a year, which includes 4 variants of tonic water, 2 variants of ginger beer, 3 variants of lemonade, and one variant each of ginger ale, soda water and cola.

Tim Warrillow, CEO of Fever-Tree said:

"We are delighted to report another strong performance in the first half of 2017, continuing the momentum seen in 2016. We achieved growth in all our regions, driven by further distribution gains and underlying rate of sales growth as the two key trends of premiumisation and mixability continue to gather pace globally.

"We continue to invest and improve our infrastructure, relationships with key suppliers and customers as well as adding to our senior team. The strength of our brand and first mover advantage means we are well positioned as the opportunity for premium mixers continues to gather momentum across our key markets."

Given the strong performance in the first half of the year, the Board anticipates that the outcome for the full year will be materially ahead of its expectations."

" the outcome for the full year will be materially ahead of expectations"

That's nice. Very nice :-)

...Care to comment Skinny? -):

Yes Stan - I still hate this share :-)

Me too!😃

but not all of us do :-)

I daren't tell Mrs Skinny about today's move - shes been "telling me to buy" since @£1.75p!

That's it, I'm off to get a Blackwoods gin, with a Schweppes tonic water!🤣

Very wise Skinny!😃

I have the same problem. My wife also told me about these some time ago. She has no idea about shares and I dismissed her advice thinking how much money can be made selling fizzy drinks in a Market already dominated by big brands. I too am not going to say anything to her as I will never hear the last of it.

I also hate this share now DOH!

Fevertree Drinks PLC (FEVR:LSE) set a new 52-week high during today's trading session when it reached 2,156.00. Over this period, the share price is up 153.45%.

Oh do stop rubbing it in D/C -):

Daily Mail - £1000 invested in 2014 would be worth £15356. :-)) IPO price 134p

if you actually hung on that long!
for myself, i traded in/out a couple of times before i acquired my present holding (latest tranche in 3/17) and that has tripled in value

Well done, will they hit £30? :-))

This share should be cancelled and never heard of again , the fact i have never bought any has nothing to do with it . Shares that just go up and up should be banned .

lol
