According to the latest data from the Tequila Regulatory Council (CRT), 2019 was considered the best year for the tequila industry with the highest consumption of Tequila in history with a notable increase in the price per value per kilo of Agave increasing from 18 to 30 pesos on average. In the first half 9 months of 202) the outlook continued to be positive and the priced remained higher than ever. In fact, in the months through October 2020:
- *1,030.8 tons of agave were consumed, an increase of 6.2 thousand tons of agave from the previous year
*Agave Consumption comparison Data January-September 2019-20 from Tequila Regulatory Council Report 10-22-20
As mentioned in the Company's previous news release, the rapid growth in Tequila sales over the past several years has caused increased demand on the supply of Agave, which has caused a shortage of supply, keeping the value of the plant per kilo at a high level over an extended period of time. According to industry experts this is a trend that is not forecasted to change over the coming years based on the growing demand for Tequila globally.
HBI is uniquely positioned to benefit from this demand. The announcement of this latest acquisition solidifies the consolidation of the Company's core asset which is an integral part in securing the long- term foundation for the Company's future growth strategy.
FPFI CEO stated, "You can't make tequila without agave. With sales of tequila increasing 46% in 2020 alone, the need for agave continues to rise. By continuing to acquire more agave assets we are positioning our Company to take advantage of the increased demand, which will drive revenue and hopefully increase shareholder value for years to come."
