What 58 And Co. Limited does

58 and CO Limited is a London-based craft distillery that produces and sells premium ethical spirits, including gin, vodka, vermouth, British red bitter, ready-to-drink cocktails, and the UK's first traditionally made shōchū. The company was founded by Carmen O'Neal in 2016 as '58 Gin' - reportedly named after the 58 recipes required to perfect the London Dry Gin - and rebranded in 2021 to '58 and CO' as an elevated ethical spirits brand anchored on three pillars: Collaboration, Connection, Community. Operations are conducted from a solar-powered distillery in a railway arch at 329 Acton Mews, Haggerston (East London), using copper pot stills (60-litre), vapor distillation for apple-based spirits, individual botanical maceration or vacuum distillation for vermouth, and on-site water treatment.

The commercial model is multi-channel. Direct-to-consumer e-commerce through the owned Shopify storefront (58andco.com) drives the majority of revenue, with free UK shipping over £50 and free gift wrapping, supported by a refill-pouch system paired with 100% recycled British glass bottles. Wholesale distribution to the on-trade (bars, restaurants, hospitality) is anchored by the House Pour Spirits range, which was originally created exclusively for on-trade venues and is being extended into retail in 2026 alongside a 5L Bag-in-Box format. A separate experiential revenue stream includes a Gin School (£35 per person), Gin Tasting (£35 per person), personalised gin creation (£99 for 2x70cl bottles), and private/corporate hire for groups of 20+ at the Haggerston distillery. The company markets through owned digital properties (website, blog, social, email), PR via the founder's recurring BBC Saturday Kitchen appearances, Tripadvisor-driven experience bookings, and collaborations with complementary brands such as Laylo (Bianco Vermouth) and Citizens of Soil (Olive Oil & Martini Masterclass).

Customer segments span individual UK consumers (home entertaining, gifting, cocktail enthusiasts), the on-trade hospitality trade (bars and restaurants stocking cocktail programmes), and corporate/private event clients. The company is B Corp certified (December 2021), re-certified in December 2025, and notably the first female-founded alcohol brand in the UK to join the B Corp community. The product portfolio has accumulated multiple awards including Great Taste 3-Star (2021, 2025, 2026), Global Gin Masters, IWSC Gold, and three consecutive Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice awards (2023-2025). Ownership is concentrated with founder Carmen O'Neal; the firm is privately held with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, or parent company, and operates with a core team of 1-10 employees.
