Isle of Arran Distillers has reported record results in its latest annual accounts. The figures to the end of 2014 reveal that turnover rose by 21% and net profit increased by 51% – the best performance posted since the business started in 1995.
Success is being driven by brand sales that are ahead by 25%. Managing director, Euan Mitchell, is delighted with the year-end results, saying, “In a challenging period for Scotch whisky our continued growth is testament to a focus on quality and a clear strategy well executed.
“Some people believe when the big companies in the industry sneeze we all catch a cold but this is not our experience. Interest in smaller, independent brands such as ours is surging and we are not even scratching the surface in global terms.”
