The event, held under the theme “Celebrating Emerging Icons,” provided an ideal platform for the brand to introduce the Guala Cap to its diverse audience of business leaders, trade partners, stakeholders, and consumers.

The Guala Cap, known for its tamper-evident technology, is designed to ensure that every bottle of Lord’s Gin reaches consumers in its authentic, premium form, thereby protecting both the brand and its loyal customers from the growing threat of counterfeit products in the market.

“In a market where counterfeit products are increasingly advanced, it’s crucial for us to stay ahead by investing in solutions that ensure our consumers receive only the best”, he said.
