Case Study
How Intrepid Spirits scaled internationally using a combination of Invoice and Stock Finance
About the client: Intrepid Spirits
Intrepid Spirits is a global beverage company with a growing portfolio of premium spirits including Cocalero, Mad March Hare Poitin, Egans Irish Whiskey and Regal Rogue Vermouth. Since its founding in 2013, the company has carved out a strong presence in some of the world’s most competitive markets, including Ireland, the UK, Japan, and the USA.
With a focus on innovation, quality, and brand storytelling, Intrepid Spirits has developed a loyal customer base and a dynamic pipeline of new products. Recent developments include the launch of ready-to-drink (RTD) canned cocktails, which are gaining significant traction, particularly in the US.
The Challenge: Meeting demand without sacrificing cash flow
As demand surged, particularly in key export markets such as the USA and Japan, Intrepid Spirits secured several large international orders. While this growth was encouraging, it also placed pressure on their working capital. The company needed immediate access to funds to secure core inputs like liquid, bottles, and production slots—long before they could invoice and receive payment.
The dual challenge was clear:
- Working capital gaps between order fulfilment and payment.
- Upfront funding needed for raw materials and production.
The Teybridge Capital Solution
To address these challenges, Teybridge Capital partnered with Intrepid Spirits to deliver a bespoke funding package combining both Invoice Finance and Stock Finance.
Invoice Finance allowed Intrepid Spirits to unlock cash tied up in outstanding invoices from their international debtors, ensuring a healthy cash flow even as they extended credit terms to key distributors and retail partners.
Stock Finance enabled the company to access working capital for purchasing raw materials and booking critical production capacity in advance- without waiting for invoice payments.
Our tailored, dual-facility approach allowed Intrepid Spirits to:
- Scale production in line with growing global demand.
- Fulfil larger and more frequent orders without delays.
- Invest in product innovation, including a new RTD range targeting the US market.
“Teybridge Capital have been instrumental in helping us meet the demands of our growing global customer base. Their ability to understand the nuances of our industry and provide a funding solution that works across both stock and receivables has allowed us to scale with confidence. The support from their team has been proactive, responsive, and solutions-focused every step of the way.”John Ralph, CEO, Intrepid Spirits Limited
