The Fort Worth Press - Spirits Capital’s Distilled Barrels Financial Exchange DBFEX(TM) Partners with Lofted Spirits to Offer Barrel Inventory

Historically, the contract distillation and barrel market has operated behind closed doors, leading to inconsistent pricing and quality standards. The DBFEX™ platform enables buyers and sellers to gain transparency and insight into the quality, age, and cooperage of each barrel. Every barrel listed on DBFEX™ is verified and meets rigorous quality standards, empowering producers to set the value of their own products rather than relying on third-party brokers.

"This agreement represents a transformative shift in the way liquid assets are valued and traded," said Ray Franklin, Chief Revenue Officer at Spirit Capital's DBFEX™. "Gone are the days of secretive negotiations and backroom deals. We are ushering in a new chapter of verified spirit production, from the distillery to the end user."

Pete Marino, President of Lofted Spirits, states, "DBFEX aligns perfectly with our commitment to innovation and transparency in the bourbon industry. By integrating DBFEX's cutting-edge verification and tracking technology, we can ensure authenticity and traceability for our products while expanding our reach to a broader audience of discerning buyers. This collaboration strengthens consumer confidence and enhances the accessibility of Lofted Spirits' offerings on a global scale."

Todd Sanders, Chairman and CEO of Spirits Capital, added, "We are thrilled to welcome Lofted Spirits to the DBFEX™, where their world-renowned barrels will be available to a global marketplace. This relationship marks a major milestone in our mission to expand access to barrel-aged spirits and revolutionize how spirits are bought, sold, and traded."
