Premier Innovations Group Announces Expansion Into West Virginia

Pittsburgh, PA (October 1, 2011)—Premier Innovations Group has announced their recent expansion into the state of West Virginia.

Expanding Clique Vodka’s foothold into new US markets is our biggest focus as we close out 2011 and prepare for 2012.  We are anticipating rapid brand market penetration leading to a positive following in the West Virginia market.” – Noah Cohen, CEO Premier Innovations Group.

Premier’s brand, Clique Vodka, is now sold throughout retail outlets in all areas of West Virginia. The brand is sold in numerous retail outlets such as Ashebrooke Liquor (the largest retailer in West Virgina) and 711 retail stores. St. John’s Marketing is the local distributor Premier has decided to work with. The brand hit store shelves last week and is priced at $15.99 for a 1 liter bottle.

We view West Virginia as a good state to do business with for many reasons. Its proximity to Pennsylvania has allowed many consumers to request the brand to be available in the Mountain State,” said Jimi Romanus, Vice President of Sales. “Today’s economy has created a strong demand for high quality vodka with an affordable price point, which is something Clique offers in this market.

West Virginia now marks the third state that Premier Innovations Group has expanded their brands to, along with Pennsylvania and Tennessee.

Noah Cohen, CEO of Premier Innovations Group to Speak at Global Entrepreneurs Event

Pittsburgh, PA (October 1, 2011)—On Saturday, October 1, 2011, TiE® Pittsburgh will be hosting “Entrepreneurs Base Camp-Entrepreneurs to the Rescue” at Carnegie Mellon University.

CEO Noah Cohen has been asked to be one of 2011 speakers, giving his insights on entrepreneurship and the science of start-ups. As an entrepreneur with over 10 years of experience in start-up development, he founded Premier Innovations Group in 2007 by integrating a strong cultural foundation and rigid structure. Premier Innovations Group is a Pittsburgh-based spirits importing company that launched Clique Vodka and Don Pantaleon Tequila into the US markets in 2010. In the seed stage, Cohen used stock in the master company, Premier Innovations Group, to purchase an event-based entertainment company and graphic design firm, which serve as subsidiaries. This strategy allowed Premier Innovations Group to move marketing and branding efforts in-house, enabling the company to quickly grow brand awareness and market share.

At the age of 30 he has already been involved in the development of over 20 start-up projects in a broad range of industries including technology, real estate, restaurants, chemical products, direct sales, advertising, music, nonprofit philanthropy and entertainment. Cohen currently runs the day-to-day operations and oversees Premier’s core team of officers while building strong worldwide relationships and connecting people to help them achieve their passion.

Each year, over 100 entrepreneurs attend the event, which features presentations by local business leaders. TiE-Pittsburgh is the local chapter of an international networking and mentoring organization for entrepreneurs.
