EQL and Flaviar Partner to Power Premium Spirits Launches

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, May 20, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- EQL, the only end-to-end platform purpose-built for high-heat product launches, has partnered with Flaviar, Inc., the global leader in BevAlc e-commerce and a trusted home for hundreds of premium whiskey, tequila, and spirits brands. Together, they will deliver seamless, high-demand launches that reward true fans, champion fairness, and build brand loyalty through a new kind of commerce beloved for its integrity.

In the world of spirits, scarcity isn’t a challenge—it’s an opportunity. Limited releases ignite fierce demand, create cultural moments, and cement brand loyalty. With deep experience launching coveted releases for brands like Suntory, Found North Whiskey, and Sullivan’s Cove, EQL now expands its footprint through this partnership, helping even more spirits brands transform rarity into lasting relationships.

“People don’t just buy bottles—they chase heritage, craftsmanship, and exclusivity,” said Andrew Lipp, Co-Founder and CEO of EQL. “This partnership helps brands turn that passion into lasting loyalty, ensuring the right bottles find their way to the right fans.”

Flaviar already provides a suite of consumer- and business-facing solutions that support spirits brands, many of which operate without dedicated marketing or e-commerce resources. By partnering with EQL, Flaviar can now offer another critical advantage: helping brands capture demand around limited releases and deepen fan engagement at the most pivotal moments.

“Of the over 500 brands we power e-commerce for, the most successful are the ones that go beyond just another sale of a bottle,’ said Jugoslav Petkovic, Co-Founder & CEO at Flaviar. “By frequently offering merchandise and launching limited editions, they’re cultivating communities, creating moments, and turning customers into lifelong fans. Our partnership with EQL helps ensure that every limited release is launched in a fair, trusted, and scalable way. This collaboration is also another step in Flaviar’s commitment to being the go-to e-commerce platform for beverage alcohol brands, offering a robust suite of tools that empower suppliers to grow, engage, and thrive in the digital age. As the leader in beverage alcohol e-commerce, we’re proud to help brands turn rare drops into lasting loyalty—and scale like never before.”

Together, EQL and Flaviar give spirits brands the infrastructure, precision, and marketing expertise needed to ensure every bottle fuels a deeper connection with fans. Every launch isn’t just a transaction—it’s a celebration of rarity and craft.
