A clear point of difference
A refined botanical aperitif concept created for customers who want something lighter or alcohol-free without defaulting to an ordinary soft drink.
Maison Rio for Curated Retail
The Retail Selection
Some products fill a shelf. Others earn a recommendation.
Maison Rio is creating refined botanical aperitifs for selective retailers who value distinctive products, considered presentation and a compelling reason for customers to choose differently.
Register Retail InterestA customer can only choose what the shelf helps them discover.
Retailers are navigating a drinks market in which customers are increasingly looking beyond the conventional choice.
Some want to drink less. Some want a sophisticated non-alcoholic option. Others are simply searching for something new, refined and worth sharing.
Yet lighter choices can still be difficult to identify, explain and recommend without directing the customer towards something overly sweet, overly familiar or visually disconnected from the premium range around it.
Maison Rio is being created to give considered retailers another conversation to begin: a dry, botanical aperitif experience with distinctive presentation and a simple serving ritual.
The retail story
Designed to hold its place in a considered range.
A premium retail product needs to work before it is opened. Its scale, presentation and positioning must give both the retailer and customer a clear reason to pause.
Maison Rio’s 250 mL slim-can format is intended to offer a distinctive single-serve proposition while retaining the elegance expected within a carefully selected drinks range.
The format supports a simple customer story: chill well, pour into beautiful stemware and serve with a restrained garnish where appropriate.
Final can artwork, products, case configurations, retail presentation, pricing and availability remain subject to production and commercial confirmation.

The retail partnership approach
The right range begins with the right fit.
01 — Understand the retailer
We begin with your store, location, customer, current range and the role you believe Maison Rio could play within it.
02 — Consider the opportunity
Product category, customer demand, potential volumes, shelf presentation, service story and launch timing can then be considered together.
03 — Confirm the commercial details
Product availability, wholesale pricing, recommended retail pricing, case configuration, minimum orders, payment terms, delivery, licensing requirements and launch timing must be confirmed before proceeding.
Wholesale accounts, exclusive territories, sale-or-return arrangements, promotional support and immediate product supply are not currently implied or confirmed.
A retail concept currently taking shape.
Maison Rio is currently in development. The products and retail presentations shown on this page demonstrate the intended creative and commercial direction only.
Final products, artwork, packaging, case configurations, wholesale pricing, recommended retail pricing, margins, minimum orders, payment terms, launch dates, delivery areas and availability may differ.
No retail account, stock allocation, distribution right, territory or commercial arrangement is confirmed by registering interest.
Lower-alcohol products will be supplied only to appropriately licensed businesses and only where Maison Rio can do so lawfully and responsibly. Non-alcoholic retail possibilities are also being explored.
The right product does more than occupy shelf space. It gives the retailer something worth recommending.
