Arkay Beverages, the global pioneer in alcohol-free spirits, proudly announces that Licor Zone Mexico, the largest spirits producer and operator in Mexico, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to acquire a 10% equity stake in Arkay Beverages.
This strategic partnership underscores Arkay’s unwavering commitment to transparency, integrity, and sustainable growth—principles that several major global spirits conglomerates have failed to uphold. In response, Arkay has made the deliberate decision to distance itself from these entities and instead align with forward-thinking partners who share its values and long-term vision.
With Arkay’s primary production facility located in Mexico, this alliance with Licor Zone Mexico is a natural and strategic fit. It strengthens Arkay’s operational foundation in the region while also providing the capital infusion needed to fuel global expansion.
The terms of the agreement remain unchanged: 10% equity for $150 million, based on a $1.5 billion valuation.
“This is more than a financial transaction,” said Reynald Vito Grattagliano, founder of Arkay Beverages. “It’s a partnership built on mutual trust, strategic alignment, and a shared mission to redefine the future of zero-proof spirits. Why look halfway across the world for a Japanese partner, when the right one is already under our feet?”
