About Peroni Nastro Azzurro:
Peroni Nastro Azzurro is a crisp, refreshing lager that exudes Italian style. Created in 1963 in Italy, Peroni Nastro Azzurro launched in the United States in 2005, and today is enjoyed across six continents. Built on a foundation of excellence, Peroni Nastro Azzurro received its name in honour of the SS Rex – the only Italian ship to ever receive the ‘Nastro Azzurro’ award, given to the ship that crossed the Atlantic in the shortest time in an international competition. The SS Rex became a symbol of prestige for Italy and today the ‘Nastro Azzurro’ or ‘Blue Ribbon’ is displayed in Peroni Nastro Azzurro’s name and branding as a symbol of the style, distinction and quality that Italy has been exporting to the world ever since.

About Billionaires Row:
Billionaires Row is a unique brand that develops and markets luxury goods. Their high-quality champagne and cognac have a distinct and modern taste that is perfect for any occasion. The company was originally founded in 2011 and then relaunched by William Benson and Patrick Ductant in 2020 with Benson’s name on the bottle. Noticing the lack of diversity in the spirits industry, Benson and Ductant set out to create a unique brand. The mission of Billionaires Row is to cater towards everyone and not be specifically representing a particular person. The company has since grown exponentially reaching a wider audience across the globe. Billionaires Row is the second Black-owned Champagne company recognized by the French and U.S. governments and Benson also became the first American to have his name on a champagne brand approved by the prestigious Comité Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne in France. Benson and Ductant have even trademarked the name Billionaires Row and have since propelled the brand to be one of the most recognizable in the world. Both Benson and Ductant are accomplished black men who continue to inspire aspiring entrepreneurs with their success. Explore the brand’s offerings at www.billionairesrow.com/champagne.
