Global Drinks Limited (GDL) is one of our featured Exhibitors of the Day on 25 November during the Virtual Travel Retail Expo Buyers & Brands Bonanza Month.

GDL, the fast-growing, Hong Kong company founded by experienced drinks executive Harry Kartasis, is showcasing its offer as a Silver Partner in the Hainan Discovery zone, one of the most exciting enhancements to this year’s Expo.
GDL partners with some of the world’s leading spirits and wine companies – including Stoli Group, Wild Wombat Spirits and Blue Harbour Spirits – in bringing a range of services to both local and travel retail channels.

Some of the many brands it represents include Bushmills Irish Whiskey, Jose Cuervo and 1800 Tequila.
With over 25 years of experience, GDL has amassed extensive knowledge of world markets, and focuses on the Asia Pacific region.
The company runs its own supply chain platform in Hong Kong and Singapore, offering partners a gateway to the world at competitive rates and without the logistical headache that comes with international expansion.
Today, GDL focuses on four key business areas: brand management, account management, supply chain and customer service.
Its stated goal is to provide client companies, and their brands, with world class sales and marketing programmes, aimed at both travel retail and domestic customers, in order to maximise both the brand and the company’s image, while delivering top line sales growth.
Discover more about GDL and its brands by visiting the company’s virtual stand today.
