Nice to have you back Craigy.
Not long to wait now for the FLS within the audited finals, and the AGM. :-)
Evening all. I imagine they employed Gerald Ratner to help them come up with the name TaaT. ;-)
Nice to see you back and cheerful Craigy.
I have ungreened BB just to follow a few links....as for the other moronic trolley pusher it stays in room 101.,, with all the other gutter turds !! vile human being.
fact...city have never beaten wycombe...
esp if pens !
Craig,
Apologies. Did not mean that to be flippant or rude. Good that we are able to debate, that is all.
Fred,
Tricky game tonight. Nice away game to go to though. Quite like Craven Cottage. Very late night though!
BB2.
Gallini and TB,
While we are being civil…
You are obviously closer to the Co than me (associated on Telegram etc). Do you know if anyone has asked about when (I hope rather than if) there will be a Company Presentation available? Please take a moment to have a look at the TAAT Co Presentation. There is some very good stuff on there. Yes, some is Co specific but there is some good generic stuff on there too that in effect could apply to Chill.
Interested in your considered thoughts.
On way to match do poss pick this up later
Once again, good to have a civil discussion.
BB2
Thank you Gallini,
I must admit that I had missed that reference to SF.
Tobler,
Don’t get me wrong, I am not disputing it at all. I just think more could have made of it as it is obviously a very good retail chain to be stocked in.
Fully agree ref your Chill comments. As far as a brand name there is no competition (in my opinion) between CHILL and TAAT.
Good to have a civil exchange,
Chill, BB2 (bit better that TAAT, BB2)
Regarding TAAT then I do think we agree. As a product "brand" then TAAT is very poor, albeit maybe just in UK where "its a load of old tatt" would mean it's rubbish whereas in Canada and US it might not have that meaning. However with us having a bigger product range and already in 5 x the number of stores, Chill looks seriously undervalued OR TAAT looks VERY seriously overvalued - probably somewhere in the middle though!
You posted this BB2 and don’t forget CHILL is understood across all languages and there’s no way you can misunderstand that at CHILL.COM
Also had a
Stand at the SF 25th annual conference in Denver. Look on instagram page for chill CBD and there’s a video on it. You also know it’s them due to the photographic evidence given Numerous times
SF were definitely spoken about in one of the interviews too!
Billy, as per my post below
Sorry Matt,
I probably rambled there!
What I was trying to say if that I have not actually seen (unless I am mistaken) CHLL say there product are stocked in Smoker Friendly stores. Please correct me by I don’t ever remember seeing the actual SF name stated.
The Group's Chill product range has and continues to be well received by the US retail operators that have been selected by the Group's distribution partners. Tim Greene, Category Director, GM and Tobacco at Smoker Friendly, America's largest cigarette and tobacco store retailer, said: "Chill CBD pouches and smokes are another example of the Group's continual spirit of innovation and our ability to participate in launching incredible brands that offer consistent choice and satisfaction to our customers
Billy
Still don't get your feelings of hiding or not informing us of store locations. In the rns where they stated they would be in 3500 by July the commented - "This milestone will also mark the Chill brand's full entrance into new high-growth markets including Florida, Georgia, Virginia, North Carolina, Indiana, California, and Missouri."
Not sure what more you want?
Regarding TAAT then I do think we agree. As a product "brand" then TAAT is very poor, albeit maybe just in UK where "its a load of old tatt" would mean it's rubbish whereas in Canada and US it might not have that meaning. However with us having a bigger product range and already in 5 x the number of stores, Chill looks seriously undervalued OR TAAT looks VERY seriously overvalued - probably somewhere in the middle though!
Regarding your comment - "However, I do not think CHLL have actually confirmed that SF is the "one of the largest tobacco-focused retail chains in the US (the 'Retail Chain')". I may be wrong on that but I do not remember that confirmation. Yes, I know there are photos on social media but I am talking about actual confirmation by CHLL." - I'm not sure what you mean?? You state that you don't think Chill have actually confirmed that SF is one fo the largest .... but used in "" exactly what they had in their annoucement???
Matt,
Let us agree on something (for a change)....
The name TAAT is not that clever, is it! I've just visited their website to be met by a message "Get a free packet of TAAT today". It just doesn't seem right, does it!
If you read their news releases though, they are very specific regards store numbers and locations. Yes, CHLL did confirm 500 stores in Florida (I was impressed with that and topped up on that news). However, I do not think CHLL have actually confirmed that SF is the "one of the largest tobacco-focused retail chains in the US (the 'Retail Chain')". I may be wrong on that but I do not remember that confirmation. Yes, I know there are photos on social media but I am talking about actual confirmation by CHLL.
I do agree, it would be good to get a split of SF/ATAAC stores. Especially in Florida as there are not that many SF stores there, so a large part of the 500 stores must be AATAC or "others".
If you can be bothered, take a look at the TAAT investor presentation. There is loads of really good stuff on there. I really do not understand why CHLL do not have an investor presentation available.
Good to debate, but must go now.
BB2.
Billy
We have confirmed 500 in Florida and a large percentage are in the SF stores which anyone can find by googling. Don’t think they aren’t being secretive at all on this.
It would be nice to know the SF/AATAC split admittedly but we know that there are approximately 800 SF stores and affiliates so if we are already in all those it’s a minimum 1700 AATAC.
RKB,
You do make a very good point.
It is also well documented that there is a valuation anomaly between the two Companies.
One thing that I have noticed is that TAAT seem to be much more clear and specific as regards store numbers and locations than CHLL. That may be deliberate on behalf of CHLL (as I think you are suggesting) and it may not. We will find out soon, I would suggest.
That is it from me as I've got a train to catch to watch LUFC in the Cup...
Regards, BB2.
Our Competitor
Taat also sells nicotine & tobacco-free alternatives like Chill.
I know, recently there have been some comparisons made with TAAT & CHLL.
If you look at the Taat website, on the top right-hand corner and click on their press releases under “News” then you will get a flavour of how they have progressed over the past ten months.
Taat’s press releases go back to November 2020 when they only began producing but were not selling.
The press release dated 6th of August 2021 said, “following these purchase orders, the total count of U.S. retailers carrying TAAT™ has grown to approximately 500 points of sale, reflecting significant short-term growth compared to approximately 300 points of sale on record as of mid-July 2021.”
So Chill, one week earlier than when Taat announced 500 points of sale, we announced in our RNS dated 29th July 2021 “Chill products stocked in approximately 2,500 multi-state retail outlets.”
If you were to read all the press releases of Taat and then just read 2 or 3 RNS’s of Chill, I think you may have an inkling as to why our BoD are delaying to as late as possible information that will be game changing for our Company.
