Westcoast Minnow has sting in its tail


Press Release available for immediate release


Westcoast Minnow has sting in its tail and the big Breweries in its sights..

Recently westcoast Brewing registered a prospectus then a little over two weeks ago launched into its capital raising.

“The initial results have been overwhelming” said Paddy Sweeney Director and CEO of the company.

“In the first two weeks we fielded a huge response and have dispatched over 400 investment statements and information packages” He said.

The enquiry has come from across the country and has a lot of depth to it. The cheque’s started flowing in straight away and we are confident we will reach our objectives said Sweeney.

“It took us a while to finalise the information package into the format we were happy with. Our Brand Manager Anna Bressnell has done an absolutely amazing job with the package, it really is impressive.” Said Sweeney.

The company is raising $2 000 000.00 to upgrade equipment at the brewery and commence its setting up of high profile bars in Australia and New Zealand.

The company has the right to accept over subscriptions to the tune of another million.

“The way it is shaping up, it would appear we will get to the higher amount.” Said Sweeney

“We have a number of concepts as to the types of bars we are intending to establish” said Sweeney.

These include a West Coast Steak House, designed to take Steak Houses to the next level. Sweeney has been researching Steak Houses around the world for the last few years and believes they have refined their concept into something very very special.

Also westcoast BREWING’s agenda is a new concept for Irish Bars. We have also been researching Irish Bars in different countries and been in discussions with Guinness in Ireland.

“Our Irish Bars will come out under a concept we call “New Irish” which puts a fresh approach to the traditional Irish Pub”

The company also plans High Profile Night Clubs to compliment their products including RTD’s (Ready To Drink Spirits in a small bottle).

The company recently snared the flag ship sponsorship event Hokitika Wildfoods Festival off Auckland Based Montieths.

The Duopoly of the two big Hairy Mammoths that dominate the Beer market in New Zealand will well aware of the West Coast minnow as it slowly but surely starts to gnaw into their market share.
