Strong balance sheet to fund growth

Corby’s strong balance sheet enabled the all-cash acquisitions of Domaines Pinnacle (previous owner of our Ungava Spirits brands) in 2016 and the Foreign Affair winery in 2017. Ungava gin and Cabot Trail cream liqueur have since become two of the fastest growing spirits brands in Canada.
