UCU Members on Dragons' Den. Again!

Katherine Vellinga challenges attendees at the Windsor
Ukrainian Heritage festival last fall to a vodka taste test.

You may remember from a UCU newsletter (see it here, page 3) about two years ago that UCU member, John Vellinga and his company Multiculture Bevco Inc., owners of Slava Ultra Premium and Zirkova Premium vodkas were featured on CBC's hit reality business show Dragons' Den.

That year, they won the Viewers' Choice Award & Grand Prize- as voted on by the national TV audience of nearly 2 million Canadians.

And now, Dragons' Den is doing a "Where are they Now Episode" on Wednesday February 29, 2012 from 8-9 EST which will be featuring Slava Ultra Premium Vodka!

“We will always appreciate the confidence UCU had in us and the assistance they gave our business in the early stages!,” says Katherine Vellinga, co-owner of Multiculture Bevco Inc. Katherine recently appeared at an evening devoted to female entrepreneurs in Ukraine. We will be posting some photos of that event on our Facebook page later this week, so stay tuned.

We have also had the pleasure of tasting their newest addition to the lineup, the honey pepper vodka, and it is a very smooth, yet sweetly spicy libation.
