Bevie
Bevie (formerly Imake and SPL International), is dedicated to bringing innovation and excitement into the commercial, homebrew and DIY food sector. Currently supplying over 3,000 equipment and ingredients products to make almost any type of alcoholic drink, cheese (vegan too), yoghurt, kefir, sauerkraut and more! We specialise in DIY kits and equipment setups which make it simple, easy and fun for anyone. Our roots are in New Zealand and the UK, and we have offices and warehouses in NZ, Australia and the UK. We also have an extensive distribution network through the USA, Europe, and South Africa and access to over 1,300 stores in over 40 countries worldwide. Over the last three decades there has been a huge global growth in consumers wanting to know more about food, what is in it, and how it is made. The demand for craft beer, spirits and artisan foods has meant more and more people are also starting to want to experiment and have a go at producing these types of things themselves. Every year we produce new products based on current food and beverage trends, and we don’t intend to slow down any time soon! Imake and SPL international have had a close relationship for more than two decades, with SPL providing the ingredients’ expertise to Imake who produced hardware and provided consumer facing activity. Working together as Bevie, our combined product development, market understanding and global reach is stronger than ever. We can offer more innovation and increased capabilities to serve both branded and private label retail products, and bulk ingredients to the commercial alcoholic drinks industries. We are a fun loving, innovative company with a staff that has a passion for what we do. We take pride in really understanding the industry and producing great products and brands that delight our customers all over the world.
