Monday 20th May 2013
ROK Stars PLC, the consumer products development company founded by US
billionaire John Paul DeJoria and UK entrepreneur Jonathan Kendrick, has
announced that on the 15th of May 2013 the shareholders of Bavarian-based
brewery Aktienbrauerei Kaufbeuren AG voted to transfer its brewery business
and the real estate necessary for the brewery business to ABK
Betriebsgesellschaft der Aktienbrauerei Kaufbeuren GmbH (ABK GmbH) with a
99.74% majority.
John Paul DeJoria addressed the shareholders meeting via video from the
United States and Jonathan Kendrick addressed the shareholders gathered at
the brewery in Kaufbeuren in person.
ROK Stars PLC owns 55% of ABK GmbH which now has the exclusive distribution
rights for all Aktienbrauerei Kaufbeuren AG's products worldwide.
ABK GmbH's primary tasks will include increasing sales through developing
new export markets and, in so doing, lowering the unit production costs.
Commenting, Jonathan Kendrick, Chairman of ROK Stars said 'We have seen the
remarkable growth in recent times in the heritage and craft beer markets in
several countries, particularly the US, and we feel that proper German beer
has a unique credibility, developed under the ancient 'Reinheitsgebot'
German Beer Purity Laws which date back to 1516. As a crucial unique
selling point, Aktienbrauerei in Kaufbeuren, Bavaria, can trace its roots
even further than that - to 1308 - representing more than 700 years of
Bavarian brewing heritage and tradition.'
