Chill Cocktail targets young and discerning customers, especially modern women. We are seeing a strong demand among young, modern females in China for flavourful alcoholic drinks that are lower in alcohol. In fact, the market for such products in China have exploded but Southeast Asia is still early days in terms of adoption.
Right now, female-focused alcoholic drinks in Southeast Asia are mainly RTD cocktail (eg SPY Wine Cooler) and flavoured soju. As females become more financially independent, this would open up the market for more players to step into the low/no/reduced alcohol segment.
