OMG Group has added Sydney-based distributor, Little Marionette, to its supplier ranks, as the company continues to expand into the matcha sector.
Announced shortly after the news of the group’s partnership with Sandai Group in Japan as a supplier, and Food & Dairy Group as a distributor, OMG said the deal will give their products “meaningful exposure”.
“The Little Marionette is exactly the kind of partner we envisioned when we built this platform,” OMG Group CEO Alex Aleksic said. “Their commitment to quality and ethical sourcing aligns directly with what we stand for as a company, and their reach into premium hospitality and retail channels gives our matcha meaningful exposure across new consumer segments.”
Founded in 2010, Little Marionette is a coffee roaster that serves cafes, hospitality venues, and retailers.
“We look forward to a successful relationship with The Little Marionette and to delivering long-term value through this partnership,” Aleksic added. “This agreement also validates a key pillar of our matcha strategy.
“Premium brands want access to authentic Japanese matcha, and combined with the Food & Dairy Co distribution appointment, we now have both channels of the platform generating commercial activity.”
Aleksic said that further announcements will be made in the near term.
