Key milestones
RLG continued its high growth strategy and rapid expansion across the March 2022 quarter. The e-commerce and digital marketing company achieved many milestones despite supply chain delays globally, including in China.
The Company has continued to focus on its technology, business development, marketing, and product selection. This has powered the growth in product sales revenue, achieved so far this year. Additionally, RLG continues to launch additional direct-to-consumer online stores.
China
RLG has tapped products in demand and the preferred platforms for engagement with online shoppers. This led to the development and launch of new stores on popular online sales platforms in China including TikTok/Douyin and Pinduoduo, in addition to Alibaba’s Tmall environments.
Notably, RLG continues to monitor the current COVID-related lockdowns in China. Logistics delays indicate that expected revenue in Q422 is likely to be in line with Q322.
Australia
The Company received first sales receipts on Australian wool garment producer Merino & Co during the March quarter. It has built and rolled out its direct-to consumer marketplace, launching with wines after the end of the quarter. First revenues from the RLG Wine Marketplace - BestWineDeals.com.au, are expected in Q422 with more products to follow.
