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.

Fever-Tree dampens Unilever talk and toasts sales jump
The Evening Standard
Sales at Fever-Tree soared in 2017
Posh mixers maker Fever-Tree on Wednesday sought to play down talks of a takeover by Unilever as it revealed another year of “exceptional” sales growth.
Boss Tim Warrillow declined to comment on City rumours that consumer goods giant Unilever is set to swoop for the business. But he told the Standard that the company “can never say it is not open to talks” from a suitor.
He stressed: “Our focus right now is on further growth”.
The AIM-listed firm said 2017 revenues are expected to be up 66% to £169 million.
It was boosted by sales in the UK surging 96%, thanks to larger orders from supermarkets and more pubs stocking Fever-Tree tonics.

Fever-tree keeps on bubbling as its profits double
Warrillow was upbeat about 2018, but added: “It would be unrealistic to think we can keep growing in the UK at this pace.”
Nicola Mallard, an analyst at Investec, said Fever-Tree “has continued to gain share from the competition”. She pointed out that the firm has overtaken Schweppes and is now the number one mixer brand (by value) in the UK off-trade.
Fever-Tree shares rose 98.46p to 2533.46p. They floated at 134p in November 2014

continuing to tick up though on unexciting volume
perhaps an indication of a lack of shares on offer (available), especially as it is a "proper" stock and not MM-only

as we draw to the end of another dreadful week, i thought to draw attention to this one yet again
though the figures are not due for another 2/3 weeks, sp has stayed firm despite the non-appearance of the much touted t/o offer
volume is not especially strong, but i thought it interesting nevertheless

just about beat forecasts and forward statement is quite bullish
sp has held up quite well for the moment (down 80), but some of the steam may evaporate in the coming weeks
that said, there remains the mooted bid in the background
