The launch of #CapTech2026 India in Mumbai was more than a gathering of entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders. It was also the stage for the debut of a new international partnership and the introduction of a premium Australian brand to the Indian market. During the event, Advance Australia Vodka, a premium Australian spirit, was officially launched for distribution in India. The launch represents a strategic collaboration between International Liquor Distribution Pty Ltd (Australia) and Hops and Barrels Pty Ltd (India) bringing together expertise in international beverage distribution and local market insight. Leading this partnership are: Louie Fares Director, International Liquor Distribution Pty Ltd Adarsh Sharath Director, Hops and Barrels Pty Ltd Through this collaboration, the brand will initially be distributed across the Indian states of Karnataka and Telangana, with a clear pathway toward national expansion across India. India continues to emerge as one of the most exciting markets globally for premium spirits and beverage consumption, driven by rising consumer demand, expanding hospitality sectors, and an increasing appetite for high-quality international brands. For both companies, the launch marks the beginning of a long-term growth strategy. Both Louie Fares and Adarsh Sharath expressed strong enthusiasm and confidence about the partnership, highlighting the significant opportunities ahead as they work together to expand the brand’s presence across India. The collaboration also reflects the broader purpose of #CapTech2026, creating meaningful global connections that lead to real commercial outcomes and cross-border business opportunities. As momentum builds, further developments and expansion plans for Advance Australia Vodka in India are expected to follow in the coming months.
