1st Trimester | 125.6 | 109.3 | +15.0% | +18.0% |
TFF Group's first-quarter consolidated sales totaled €125.6 million, up +15% at current exchange rates, and +18% like-on-like. The company's two divisions contributed to this growth:
Our wine division: €60.6 M,
+9.5% and +10.8% on a like-for-like basis (scope effect +0.3%, currency effect -1.6%)
The year got off to a good start, driven mainly by the US market which was the strongest growth driver for the group over the period, with barrel volumes trending upwards.
The 1st quarter was in line with expectations, despite variations in the euro/ dollar exchange rate.
Our alcohol division: €65.0 M, +20.6% and +25.3% like-on-like
The bourbon division contributed strongly to the group's growth, with the more barrels produced and the ninth stave mill in Ohio soon to be added to the Group's production capability. Eight stave mills are currently in operation, with the start of the Pennsylvania site expected at the end of 2023.
The whisky division was also a driver of growth, thanks to a positive price effect in a market this at still under pressure from a shortage of used barrels.
The Group can confirm its announced objective of sales growth in excess of 10% for the current year, excluding external growth.
TFF Group is pleased to announce the acquisition of Biossent, which will allow the strengthing of its offer in terms of wood products for oeonology.
Biossent was acquired from Maison BOINAUD, a family-owned group of Cognac, spirits producers and merchants that was established in Grande Champagne (Cognac) in the 17th century.

Its top-of-the-range extraction process, recognized throughout the market, is used at every stage of the production of wines and spirits.
Biossent's annual sales exceed €4 million and are generated on five continents. The company has also demonstrated its high profitability which is achieved thanks to the winning combination of its strong reputation and its remarkable production processes.
The Managing Director and the 13-strong team will continue to support the company in its development.
With this acquisition,TFF Group is strengthening its position in the dynamic sector of wood products for oenology and broadening its range of products.
Biossent will be consolidated into the Group's accounts from September 1st, 2023.
