----------
GLOBAL GROUP ENTERPRISES CORP.
3,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
$0.0115 PER SHARE
This registration statement constitutes the initial public offering of GLOBAL
GROUP ENTERPRISES CORP. (the "Company", "us", "GEC", or "GLOBAL GROUP ") common
stock. GLOBAL GROUP is registering 3,000,000 shares of common stock at an
offering price of $0.0115 per share for a total amount of $34,500. There are no
underwritings or broker dealers involved with the offering.
The offering of the 3,000,000 is a "best efforts" offering which means that our
director and officer will use his best efforts to sell the shares and there is
no commitment by any person to purchase any shares. The will be offered at a
fixed price of $0.0115 per share for the duration of the offering. There is no
minimum number of shares required to be sold to close the offering. The company
is not expected to receive enough proceeds from the offering to begin
operations: and there is no market for its shares. We are offering 3,000,000
shares. This offering will continue for the earlier of :(i) 90 days after this
registration statement becomes effective with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or (ii) the date on which all 3,000,000 registered hereunder have
been sold. We may at our discretion extend the offering for an additional 90
days. Proceeds from the sale of the shares will be used to fund the initial
stages of our business development. This offering will end no later than six (6)
months from the offering date. The offering date is the date by which this
registration statement becomes effective. This is a direct participation
offering since we, and not an underwriter, are offering the stock.
Currently, Mr. Andrew Keck our sole officer and director owns 100% of the
company's common stock. After the offering, Mr. Andrew Keck will retain a
sufficient number of shares to continue to control the operations of the
company.
If all the shares are not sold, there is the possibility that the amount raised
may be minimal and might not even cover the costs of the offering which the
Company estimates at $8,500. The proceeds from the sale of the securities will
be placed directly into the Company's account and there will not be an escrow
account. Since there is no escrow account, any investor who purchases shares
will have no assurance that any monies besides themselves will be subscribed to
the prospectus. All proceeds from the sale of the securities are non-refundable,
except as may be required by applicable laws. The Company will pay all expenses
incurred in this offering. There has been no public trading market for the
common stock of GLOBAL GROUP.

3,000,000 shares is completed or (ii) ninety (90) days from the date of this
prospectus becomes effective. The Company may extend the offering for an
additional 90 days beyond the ninety (90) days from the effective date of this
prospectus.

SUMMARY INFORMATION
This Prospectus, and any supplement to this Prospectus include "forward-looking
statements". To the extent that the information presented in this Prospectus
discusses financial projections, information or expectations about our business
plans, results of operations, products or markets, or otherwise makes statements

"anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "projects", "forecasts", "expects",
"plans" and "proposes". Although we believe that the expectations reflected in
these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are
a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from such forward-looking statements. These include, among others,
the cautionary statements in the "Risk Factors" section beginning on Page of
this Prospectus and the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Position and Results of Operations" section elsewhere in this Prospectus.
This summary only highlights selected information contained in greater detail
elsewhere in this Prospectus. This summary may not contain all of the
information that you should consider before investing in our common stock. You

BUSINESS SUMMARY
We are a development-stage company, incorporated in the State of Florida on
November 22, 2011, as a for-profit company, and electing a fiscal year end of
November 30. Our business and registered office is located at 221 Beach Road,
Suite 114, Siesta Key, FL 34242. Our telephone number is 941-284-5053
We have not established any business operations and have not achieved any
revenues. As at November 30, 2011, we had normal cash assets of $8,900 and had
incurred losses of $2,100. Since our incorporation, the development of our
business has been limited to organizational matters, the preparation of our
business plan and the preparation of the financial statements and other
information presented in this Prospectus. In order to implement our business
plan, we anticipate that we will require total financing of $300,000 in Stage
One, and $200,000 in Stage Two for a total of $500,000 in addition to the
$34,500 in financing that we are seeking to raise through this offering. Our
ability to implement our business plan is entirely dependent on our ability to
secure sufficient financing; however, there is no guarantee that we will be
successful in this regard. Other than the preparation and filing of this
- 6 -
offering, we have not taken any steps to secure the balance of the financing
that we will require in order to implement our business plan. Furthermore, even
if we successfully execute our business plan and establish operations, there is
no guarantee that there will be a significant market for our product or that we
will achieve significant revenues, if any.
In their audit report dated December 8, 2011, our auditors expressed an opinion
that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an outgoing
business. Because our sole director and officer may be unwilling or unable to
loan or advance any additional capital to us, we believe that if we do not raise
additional capital within 12 months of the effective date of this registration
statement, we may require suspending or ceasing the implementation of our
business plan. Due to the fact that there is no minimum investment and no
refunds on sold shares, you may be investing in a company that will not have the
funds necessary to develop its business strategies. As such we may have to cease
operations and you could lose your entire investment.
We intend to Plan and Develop a Facility to distill, bottle, market and
distribute alcoholic beverages (primarily an Ultra Premium Vodka) in the Siesta
Key, Florida proximity. (Siesta Key, Florida was voted the No. 1 beach in the
United States. (www.sarasotafl.org/siesta-key).
Vodka is one of the world's most popular spirits and we intend to produce an
Ultra Premium Vodka Brand capitalizing on Siesta Key's recent status as the No.
1 beach in the USA.
We intend to obtain the consultants to provide us with the necessary experience
and background helpful to the Ultra Premium Vodka making process, bottling,
marketing and distribution.
We anticipate it will take 18 months to start marketing this intended product.
We have not accomplished any of our intended efforts to date. We have not
generated any revenues to date and activities have been limited to develop our
business plan. We will not have the necessary capital to develop our Business
Plan until we are able to secure additional financing. There can be no assurance
that such financing will be available on suitable terms. Please see "Risk
Factors" elsewhere in this Prospectus for full discussion on time potential
business risk.
We have no plans to change our business activities or to combine with another
business and are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause us to
change plans. We have no revenue, have incurred losses since inception, have no
operation, have been issued a going concern opinion from our auditors and rely
upon the sale of our securities to fund operations.
Business Strategy
-----------------
Our intended strategy is to produce an Ultra Premium Vodka. To accomplish this,
we intend to seek out the finest distilling equipment and ingredients we can
obtain. Our research into the selection and purchasing of our distillery,
labeling and bottling equipment systems is anticipated to be the primarily
responsibility of our consulting team of specialists intended to be contracted.
We intend to distill our Ultra Premium Vodka with an artisanal custom crafted
type system. We expect our intended still to smooth out bitter flavors and
produce a refined and full-flavored spirit. We intend to control every stage of
the distillation process and therefore anticipate producing an Ultra Premium
Vodka from scratch.
- 7 -
We look forward to producing an Ultra Premium Vodka with an anticipated paradise
taste that can live up to the name of Siesta Key Beach, Florida's No. 1 Beach in
the USA 2011.
Production (Intended)
---------------------
Distill our Ultra Premium Vodka from what we anticipate to be the finest from
either the following commodities:
o Grains (Sorghum, Corn, Rye or Wheat)
o Potatoes
o Soybeans
o Grapes
o Rice
o Sugar Beets
o Fermentation (Sugar/Yeast)
Distilling & Filtering (Intended)
---------------------------------
Utilize the best available distilling and filtration process.
Flavoring (Intended)
--------------------
Clear or Flavored Ultra Premium Vodka - to be determined.
Branding (Intended)
-------------------
We intend to develop the Ultra Premium Vodka by utilizing the Siesta Key,
Florida (#1 Beach in the USA) reputation and public relations with a special
trade mark cocktail (we have not develop such a cocktail or have trade marked or
copy written such a name).
Distribution (Intended)
-----------------------
Seek to obtain a national distribution company for retail and restaurants.
In summary, we intended to plan, distill, bottle, market and distribute an Ultra
Premium Brand, Siesta Key, Florida Vodka by executing our anticipated Business
Plan Strategy.
The Market
----------
Premium Brands have been important drivers in the growing Vodka category for
some time but among the key trends forecast in a recent report on the Vodka
market from just-drinks.com is the growth of the Ultra Premium segment. Ben
Cooper reports.
According to the just-drinks.com Global Group Market Review of Vodka-Forecasters
to 2013, the Vodka market could be set to follow a trend already seen in the
Tequila category "The (Vodka) category may now be poised for its next revolution
step.

- 8 -
We will not have the necessary capital to develop or execute our business plan
until we are able to secure financing. There can be no assurance that such
financing will be available on suitable terms.
We need to raise $500,000 (in addition to the $34,500 we are seeking to raise
through this offering)to implement our business plan over the next 18 months and
the funds raised in this offering, even assuming we sell all the shares being
offered, will be insufficient to commercialize our product or develop our
business strategy.
SUMMARY OF OUR FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following table set forth selected financial information, which should be
read in conjunction with the information set forth in the "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations" section
and the accompanying financial statement and related notes included elsewhere in
this prospectus.

source of funds for our future operations.

We consider the following to be the material risks for an investor regarding
this offering. Our company should be viewed as a high-risk investment and
speculative in nature. An investment in our common stock may result in a
complete loss of the invested amount. Please consider the following risk factors
before deciding to invest in our common stock.

Risk Related to our Business
----------------------------
ALTHOUGH WE PLAN TO OFFER THE SECURITIES FROM THIS OFFERING, THERE IS NO
GUARANTEE THAT WE WILL COMMENCE THE OFFERING AND IF WE DO, THE PROCEEDS MAY BE
INSUFFICIENT TO FUND OPERATIONS.
The Company plans to offer the securities from this offering, however there is
no guarantee that the Company will be able to sell the securities. And even if
the Company does offer the securities, there are no guarantees that the proceeds
from the offering will be sufficient to fund our planned operations.
INABILITY TO OBTAIN AN EXPERIENCED CONSULTING TEAM TO ADVISE IN THE SELECTION OF
AN ULTRA PREMIUM VODKA PRODUCTION BRAND COULD COMPROMISE OUR BUSINESS AND MAY
CAUSE OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL.
Our business plan relies in part on our ability to obtain a consulting team to
aide in the selection of equipment to produce our Ultra Premium Vodka Brand, a
selection of a wrong consulting team could compromise our business and may cause
our business to fail.
WE ARE NOT CURRENTLY PROFITABLE AND MAY NOT BECOME PROFITABLE.
At November 30, 2011, we had $8,900 cash on-hand and our stockholder's equity
was $6,900 and there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a
going concern. We have incurred operating losses since our formation and expert
to incur losses and negative operating cash flow for the foreseeable future, and
we may not achieve profitability. We expect to incur substantial losses for the
foreseeable future and may never become profitable. We also expect to experience
negative cash flow for the foreseeable future as we fund our operating losses
and capital expenditures. As a result, we will need to generate significant
revenue in order to achieve and maintain profitability. We may not be able to
generate these revenues or achieve profitability in the future. Our failure to
achieve or maintain profitability could negatively impact the value of our
business.
THE COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO THE 15(D) REPORTING REQUIREMENTS UNDER THE SECURITIES
EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 WHICH DOES NOT REQUIRE A COMPANY TO FILE ALL THE SAME
REPORTS AND INFORMATION AS A FULLY REPORTING COMPANY.
The Company is subject to the 15(d) reporting requirements according to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is required to file the necessary
reports in the fiscal year that the registration statement is declared
effective. After that fiscal year and provided the Company has less than 300
shareholders, the Company is not required to file these reports. If the reports
are not filed, the investors will have reduced visibility as to the Company and
its financial condition. In addition, as a filer subject to Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act, the Company is not required to prepare proxy or information
statements; our common stock will not be subject to the protection of the going
private regulations; the company will be subject to only limited portions of the
tender offer rules; our officers, directors, and more than ten (10%) percent
shareholders are not required to file beneficial ownership reports about their
holdings in our company; that these persons will not be subject to the
short-swing profit recovery provisions of the Exchange Act; and that more than
five percent (5%) holders of classes of your equity securities will not be
required to report information about their ownership positions in the
securities.
WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON THE PROCEEDS OF THIS OFFERING TO FUND OUR BUSINESS. IF WE
DO NOT SELL ENOUGH SHARES IN THIS OFFERING TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS; THIS COULD
HAVE A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON YOUR COMMON STOCK.
- 10 -
As of November 30, 2011, we have $8,900 in assets and limited capital resources.
In order to continue operating through 2012, we must raise approximately $34,500
in gross proceeds from this offering.
The Company has approximately $8,500 in offering costs associated with this
financing. The offering proceeds may not cover these costs and if this is the
case, the Company will be in a worse financial condition after the offering.
Unless the Company begins to generate sufficient revenues to finance operations
as a going concern, the Company may experience liquidity and solvency problems.
Such liquidity and solvency problems may force us to cease operations if
additional financing is not available.
Also, as a public company, we will incur professional and other fees in
connection with our quarterly and annual reports and other periodic filings with
the SEC. Such costs can be substantial and we must generate enough revenue or
raise money from offerings of securities or loans in order to meet these costs
and our SEC filing requirements.
OUR LACK OF AN OPERATING HISTORY GIVES NO ASSURANCE THAT OUR FUTURE OPERATIONS
WILL RESULT IN PROFITABLE REVENUES, WHICH COULD RESULT IN THE SUSPENSION OR END
OF OUR OPERATIONS.
We were incorporated on November 22, 2011 and we have not realized any revenues
to date. We have very little operating history upon which an evaluation of our
future success or failure can be made. Our ability to achieve and maintain
profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon the completion of this
offering and our ability to generate revenues through sales of our product.
Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods
because we will be incurring expenses and not generating revenues. We cannot
guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future.
Failure to generate revenues may cause us to go out of business.
WE ARE A NEW COMPANY WITH NO OPERATING HISTORY AND WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF
BUSINESS FAILURE WHICH WOULD RESULT IN THE LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT.
We are a development stage company formed recently to carry out the activities
described in this prospectus and thus have only a limited operating history upon
which an evaluation of its prospectus can be made. We were incorporated on
November 22, 2011 and to date have been involved primarily in the development of
our business plan. We have limited business operations. Thus, there is no
internal or industry-based historical financial data upon which to estimate our
planned operating expenses.
We expect that our results of operations may also fluctuate significantly in the
future as a result of a variety of market factors including, among others, the
entry of new competitors offering a similar product; the availability of
motivated and qualified personnel; the initiation, renewal or expiration of our
customer base; pricing changes by the Company or its competitors, and general
economic conditions. Accordingly, our future sales and operating results are
difficult to forecast.
As of the date of this prospectus, we have earned no revenue. Failure to
generate revenue will cause us to go out of business, which could result in the
complete loss of your investment.
BECAUSE OUR CURRENT OFFICER AND DIRECTOR DOES NOT HAVE SIGNIFICANT EXPERIENCE IN
STARTING A DISTILLERY ORGANIZATION AND WE LACK CUSTOMERS AND SUPPLIERS, OUR
BUSINESS HAS A HIGHER RISK OF FAILURE.
- 11 -
Although our sole officer and director has alcohol beverage business experience,
he does not have experience in developing a new company. Additionally, we
currently have no contracts or agreements with customers or suppliers or
consultants of our Ultra Premium Vodka intended product. Therefore, without this
experience, customers, suppliers, or consultants/equipment, our management's
business experience may not be enough to effectively start-up and maintain our
company. As a result, the implementation of our business plan may be delayed, or
eventually, unsuccessful.
OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY PROVE UNPREDICTABLE WHICH COULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR
PROFIT.
Our operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future due to
a variety of factors, many of which we have no control. Factors that may cause
our operating results to fluctuate significantly include: our inability to
generate enough working capital from future equity sales; the level of
commercial acceptance by consumers of our product; the amount and timing of
operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of our business,
operations and infrastructure and general economic conditions.
If realized, any of these risks could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and operating results.
OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR MAY NOT BE IN A POSITION TO DEVOTE A MAJORITY OF
HIS TIME TO OUR OPERATIONS, WHICH MAY RESULT IN PERIODIC INTERRUPTIONS AND EVEN
BUSINESS FAILURE.
Andrew Keck, our sole officer and director, has other outside business
activities and is devoting approximately 10-25 hours per week to our operations.
Our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are not convenient to
Mr. Keck, which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of our
business plan. Such delays could have a significant negative effect on the
success of the business.
KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL MAY LEAVE THE COMPANY WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
ABILITY OF THE COMPANY TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS.
Because we are entirely dependent on the efforts of its sole officer and
director, his departure or the loss of other key personnel in the future, could
have a material adverse effect on the business. We intend to make all
commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the risks attendant with the
departure by key personnel from service.
However, there is no guarantee that replacement personnel, if any, will help the
Company to operate profitably. We do not maintain key person life insurance on
our sole officer and director.
At this time, we have not entered into any employment agreements with our Sole
officer and director. If there is sufficient cash flow available from our future
operations, we may enter into employment agreements with our Sole officer and
director or future key staff members.
IF OUR COMPANY IS DISSOLVED, IT IS UNLIKELY THAT THERE WILL BE SUFFICIENT ASSETS
REMAINING TO DISTRIBUTE TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS.
In the event of the dissolution of our company, the proceeds realized from the
liquidation of our assets, if any, will be used primarily to pay the claims of
our creditors, if any, before there can be any distribution to the shareholders.
In that case, the ability of purchasers of the offered shares to recover all or
any portion of the purchase price for the offered shares will depend on the
amount of funds realized and the claims to be satisfied there from.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO GAIN ANY SIGNIFICANT MARKET ACCEPTANCE FOR OUR PRODUCT OR
ESTABLISH A SIGNIFICANT MARKET PRESENCE, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO GENERATE SUFFICIENT
REVENUE TO CONTINUE OUR BUSINESS.
Our growth strategy is substantially dependent upon our ability to market our
product successfully to prospective customers. However, our planned product may
not achieve significant acceptance. Such acceptance, if achieved, may not be
sustained for any significant period of time. Failure of our product to achieve
or sustain market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial conditions and the results of our operations.
MANAGEMENT'S ABILITY TO IMPLEMENT THE BUSINESS STRATEGY MAY BE SLOWER THAN
EXPECTED AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO GENERATE A PROFIT.
Our plans include obtaining business from Retail and Restaurant organizations
which may not occur.
Although we plan on providing our product carefully, the product may be slow to
achieve profitability, or may not become profitable at all, which will result in
losses. There can be no assurance that we will succeed.
We may be unable to enter into its intended markets successfully. The factors
that could affect our growth strategy include our success in(a) obtaining orders
from retail/restaurant Organizations, (b) obtaining adequate financing on
acceptable terms, and (c) adapting our internal controls and operating
procedures to accommodate our future growth.
Our systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support the
expansion of our business operations. Significant growth will place managerial
demands on all aspects of our operations. Our future operating results will
depend substantially upon our ability to manage changing business conditions and
to implement and improve our technical, administrative and financial controls
and reporting systems.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR FUTURE GROWTH OUR BUSINESS COULD BE HARMED.
If the Company experiences significant growth in the foreseeable future, its
growth may place a significant strain on management, financial, operating and
technical resources. Failure to manage growth effectively could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or the results of its
operations.
Since inception on November 22, 2011 to November 30, 2011, we have spent a total
of $2,100 on start-up costs. We have not generated any revenue from business
operations. All proceeds currently held by us are the result of the sale of
common stock to its officers.
OUR PRODUCT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DISTINGUISH ITSELF IN THE MARKET AND WE MAY BE
UNABLE TO ATTRACT ENOUGH CUSTOMERS TO OPERATE PROFITABLY, WITHOUT A PROFIT WE
MAY HAVE TO SUSPEND OR CEASE OPERATIONS.
Our product will target the Ultra Premium Vodka customers, if we are unable to
demonstrate clearly the concept that makes our product unique to potential
customers, they may not purchase the product. If the public doesn't acknowledge
the singularity and innovation of our product, we may be unable to attract
enough customers.
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO MAKE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS AT ACCEPTABLE COST, WE MAY HAVE
TO SUSPEND OR CEASE OPERATIONS ENTIRELY WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TOTAL LOSS OF
YOUR INVESTMENT.
- 13 -
Because we are a small business, with limited assets, we are not in a position
to assume unanticipated costs and expenses. If we have to make changes in our
structure or are faced with circumstances that are beyond our ability to afford,
we may have to suspend operations or cease operations entirely which could
result in a total loss of your investment.
COMPETITORS MAY ENTER THIS SECTOR WITH A GREATER SUPERIOR PRODUCT, INFRINGING
OUR CUSTOMER BASE, AND AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS ADVERSELY.
We believe that we have identified a market opportunity for our product.
However, even in the uncertain event that our assessment is accurate,
competitors may enter our targeted market sector with resources, service or
product superior and more competitive to our own. This would infringe on our
customer base and have a significant adverse affect upon our business and the
results of our operations, potentially causing our business to fail.
WE DO NOT HAVE ANY INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND THE COMPANY HAS NOT VOLUNTARILY
IMPLEMENTED VARIOUS CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MEASURES, IN THE ABSENCE OF WHICH
STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE MORE LIMITED PROTECTIONS AGAINST INTERESTED DIRECTOR
TRANSACTIONS, CONFLICTS OF INTERST AND SIMILAR MATTERS.
Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has
resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to
promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets.
Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements.
Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of
national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or the NASDAQ Stock Market, on
which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that
are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that
address board of directors independence, audit committee oversight, and the
adoption of a code of ethics. Our Board of Directors is comprised of one
individual who is also our executive officer. Our executive officer makes
decisions on all significant corporate matters such as the approval of terms of
the compensation of our executive officer and the oversight of the accounting
functions.
Although we have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, we have not yet
adopted any of these other corporate governance measures and since our
securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange, we are not
required to do so. We have not adopted corporate governance measures such as an
audit or other independent committees of our board of directors as we presently
do not have any independent directors. If we expand our board membership in
future periods to include additional independent directors, we may seek to
establish an audit and other committees of our board of directors. It is
possible that if our Board of Directors included independent directors and if we
were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders
would benefit from somewhat greater assurance that internal corporate decisions
were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been
implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit
nominating and compensation committee comprised of at least a majority of
independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation
packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominee may be
made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the
matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current
lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.
SINCE OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR CURRENTLY OWNS 100% OF THE OUTSTANDING
COMMON STOCK, INVESTORS MAY FIND THAT HIS DECISIONS ARE CONTRARY TO THEIR
INTERESTS YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE SHARES UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO ENTRUST ALL
ASPECTS OF MANAGEMENT TO OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, OR HIS SUCCESSORS.
- 14 -
Our Sole officer and director, Mr. Andrew Keck owns 9,000,000 shares of common
stock representing 100% of our outstanding stock, he will own 9,000,000 shares
of our common stock after this offering is completed representing 75% of our
outstanding shares, assuming all securities are sold. As a result, he will have
control of us even if the full offering is subscribed for and be able to choose
all of our directors. His interests may differ from the ones of other
stockholders. Factors that could cause his interests to differ from the other
stockholders include the impact of corporate transactions on the timing of
business operations and his ability to continue to manage the business given the
amount of time he is able to devote to us.
All decisions regarding the management of our affairs will be made exclusively
by him. Purchasers of the offered shares may not participate in our management
and, therefore, are dependent upon his management abilities. The only assurance
that our shareholders, including purchasers of the offered shares, have that our
Sole officer and director will not abuse his discretion in executing our
business affairs, is his fiduciary obligation and business integrity. Such
discretionary powers include, but are not limited to, decisions regarding all
aspects of business operations, corporate transactions and financing. Mr. Keck
also has the ability to accomplish or ratify actions at the shareholder level,
which would otherwise implicate his fiduciary duties if done as one of the
members of our board of directors.
Accordingly, no person should purchase the offered shares unless willing to
entrust all aspects of management to the Sole officer and director, or his
successors. Potential purchasers of the offered shares must carefully evaluate
the personal experience and business performance of our management.
Risks Related To Our Financial Condition
----------------------------------------
THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL UNCERTAINTY ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE OUR OPERATIONS AS
A GOING CONCERN.
In their audit report dated December 8, 2011; our auditors have expressed an
opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an
ongoing business. Because our officers may be unwilling or unable to loan or
advance any additional capital to us, we believe that if we do not raise
additional capital within 12 months of the effective date of this registration
statement, we may be required to suspend or cease the creation/implementation of
our business plan. Due to the fact that there is no minimum investment and no
refunds on sold shares, you may be investing in a company that will not have the
funds necessary to develop its business strategies. As such we may have to cease
operations and you could lose your entire investment. See the "December 8, 2011
Audited Financial Statements - Auditors Report". Because we have been issued an
opinion by its auditor that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can
continue as a going concern it may be more difficult to attract investors.
THE ENACTMENT OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR US TO
RETAIN OR ATTRACT OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS, WHICH COULD INCREASE OUR OPERATING
COSTS OR PREVENT US FROM BECOMING PROFITABLE.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act") was enacted in
response to public concern regarding corporate accountability in the wake of a
number of accounting scandals. The stated goals of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are to
increase corporate responsibility, provide enhanced penalties for accounting and
auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and protect investors by
improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosure pursuant to
applicable securities laws. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act applies to all companies that
file or are required to file periodic reports with the SEC under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").
- 15 -
Upon becoming a public company, we will be required to comply with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Since the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has resulted
in the imposition of a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase
the responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers, the
perceived increased personal risk associated with these changes may deter
qualified individuals from accepting such roles. Consequently, it may be more
difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve as our
directors or executive officers, and we may need to incur additional operating
costs. This could prevent us from becoming profitable.
SINCE WE ANTICIPATES OPERATING EXPENSES WILL INCREASE PRIOR TO EARNING REVENUE,
WE MAY NEVER ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY.
We anticipate an increase in our operating expenses, without realizing any
revenues from the sale of its product. Within the next 12 months, we will have
costs related to (i) creating a business plan, (ii) initiation of our product
development, (iii) administrative expenses and (iv) the expenses of this
offering.
There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that
we will prove successful. We cannot provide investors with any assurance that
our product will attract customers; generate any operating revenue or ever
achieve profitable operations. If we are unable to address these risks, there is
a high probability that our business can fail, which will result in the loss of
your entire investment.
IF WE CANNOT SECURE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL, OR IF AVAILABLE CAPITAL IS TOO
EXPENSIVE, OUR BUSINESS WILL FAIL.
We require $34,500 to begin creation/implementation of the business plan. This
amount includes the $8,500 required for offering expense. We will require
additional funding of approximately $500,000 to fully execute our business plan
and bring our product to the marketplace. We intend to accomplish this in two
stages. Stage One will require additional funding of $200,000 (0-12 Months) to
start executing the business plan. Stage Two will require additional funding of
$300,000 (13-18 Months) to completely execute our marketing and sales strategy.
As of November 30, 2011, we had cash on hand of $8,900.
No assurance can be given that we will obtain access to capital markets in the
future or that adequate financing to satisfy the cash requirements of
implementing our business strategies will be available on acceptable terms. Our
inability to gain access to capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could
have a material adverse effect upon the results of its operations and its
financial conditions.
If we are not successful in earning revenue once we have started our sales
activity, we may require additional financing to sustain our business
operations. Currently, we do not have any arrangements for financing and can
provide no assurances to investors that we will be able to obtain any when
required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of
factors, including our sales results. These factors may have an affect on the
timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing and make such
additional financing unavailable to us.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RAISE MONEY AND THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO BEGIN
OPERATIONS.
There is no minimum amount of shares that must be sold by the company, the
Company is not expected to receive enough proceeds from the offering to begin
operations; and there is no market for its shares.
- 16 -
WE DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT CAPITAL TO CONTINUE MAINTAINING OUR REPORTING STATUS.
As of the date of this Prospectus, the current funds available to us will not be
sufficient to continue maintaining our reporting status with the SEC. Our
management believes that if we cannot maintain our reporting status with the SEC
we will have to cease all efforts directed towards developing our company. As
such, any investment could be lost in its entirety.
Risks Related To This Offering
------------------------------
BECAUSE THERE IS NO PUBLIC TRADING MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK, YOU MAY NOT BE
ABLE TO RESELL YOUR STOCK.
We intend to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
This process takes at least 60 days and the application must be made on our
behalf by a market maker. Our stock may be listed or traded only to the extent
that there is interest by broker-dealers in acting as a market maker. Despite
our best efforts, it may not be able to convince any broker/dealers to act as
market-makers and make quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board. We may consider
pursuing a quote on the OTCBB after this registration becomes effective and we
have completed our offering.
If our common stock becomes listed and a market for the stock develops, the
actual price of our shares will be determined by prevailing market prices at the
time of the sale.
We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our common
stock. The trading of securities on the OTC Bulletin Board is often sporadic and
investors may have difficulty buying and selling our shares or obtaining market
quotations for them, which may have a negative effect on the market price of our
common stock. You may not be able to sell your shares at their purchase price or
at any price at all. Accordingly, you may have difficulty reselling any shares
you purchase from the selling security holders.
INVESTING IN OUR COMPANY IS HIGHLY SPECULATIVE AND COULD RESULT IN THE ENTIRE
LOSS OF YOUR INVESTMENT.
Purchasing the offered shares is highly speculative and involves significant
risk. The offered shares should not be purchased by any person who cannot afford
to lose their entire investment. Our business objectives are also speculative,
and it is possible that we would be unable to accomplish them. Our shareholders
may be unable to realize a substantial or any return on their purchase of the
offered shares and may lose their entire investment. For this reason, each
prospective purchaser of the offered shares should read this prospectus and all
of its exhibits carefully and consult with their attorney, business and/or
investment advisor.
INVESTING IN OUR COMPANY MAY RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE LOSS BECAUSE BUYERS WILL PAY
MORE FOR OUR COMMON STOCK THAN THE PRO RATA PORTION OF THE ASSETS ARE WORTH.
We have only been recently formed and have only a limited operating history and
no earnings, therefore, the price of the offered shares is not based on any
data. The offering price and other terms and conditions regarding our shares
have been arbitrarily determined and do not bear any relationship to assets,
earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value. No investment
banker, appraiser or other independent third party has been consulted concerning
the offering price for the shares or the fairness of the offering price used for
the shares. Our net tangible book value per share of common stock is $0.0008 as
of November 30, 2011, our most recent financial statement date.
- 17 -
The arbitrary offering price of $0.0115 per common share as determined herein is
substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common
stock. Our assets do not substantiate a share price of $0.0115 . This premium in
share price applies to the terms of this offering. The offering price will not
change for the duration of the offering even if we obtain a quote on any
exchange or become quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
BECAUSE WE HAVE 250,000,000 AUTHORIZED SHARES, MANAGEMENT COULD ISSUE ADDITIONAL
SHARES, DILUTING THE CURRENT SHARE HOLDERS' EQUITY.
We have 250,000,000 authorized shares, of which only 9,000,000 are currently
issued and outstanding and only 12,000,000 will be issued and outstanding after
this offering terminates. Our management could, without the consent of the
existing shareholders, issue substantially more shares, causing a large dilution
in the equity position of our current shareholders. Additionally, large share
issuances would generally have a negative impact on our share price. It is
possible that, due to additional share issuance, you could lose a substantial
amount, or all, of your investment.
AS WE DO NOT HAVE AN ESCROW OR TRUST ACCOUNT WITH SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR INVESTORS,
IF WE FILE FOR OR ARE FORCED INTO BANKRUPTCY PROTECTION, INVESTORS WILL LOSE THE
ENTIRE INVESTMENT.
Invested funds for this offering will not be placed in an escrow or trust
account and if we file for bankruptcy protection or a petition for involuntary
bankruptcy is filed by creditors against us, your funds will become part of the
bankruptcy estate and administered according to the bankruptcy laws. As such,
you will lose your investment and your funds will be used to pay creditors.
WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE PAYING DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE, SO THERE WILL
BE LESS WAYS IN WHICH YOU CAN MAKE A GAIN ON ANY INVESTMENT IN US.
We have never paid dividends and do not intend to pay any dividends for the
foreseeable future. To the extent that we may require additional funding
currently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may
prohibit the declaration of dividends. Because we do not intend to pay
dividends, any gain on your investment will need to result from an appreciation
in the price of our common stock. There will therefore be fewer ways in which
you are able to make a gain on your investment.
IN THE EVENT THAT OUR SHARES ARE TRADED, THEY MAY TRADE UNDER $5.00 PER SHARE
AND THUS WILL BE A PENNY STOCK. TRADING IN PENNY STOCKS HAS MANY RESTRICTIONS
AND THESE RESTRICTIONS COULD SEVERELY AFFECT THE PRICE AND LIQUIDITY OF OUR
SHARES.
In the event that our shares are traded, and our stock trades below $5.00 per
share, our stock would be known as a "penny stock", which is subject to various
regulations involving disclosures to be given to you prior to the purchase of
any penny stock. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has
adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be any equity
security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to
certain exceptions. Depending on market fluctuations, our common stock could be
considered to be a "penny stock". A penny stock is subject to rules that impose
additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell these
securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.
For transactions covered by these rules, the broker/dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchase of these securities. In addition, he
must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the
purchase. He must also provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser.
- 18 -
Consequently, the "penny stock" rules may restrict the ability of broker/dealers
to sell our securities, and may negatively affect the ability of holders of
shares of our common stock to resell them. These disclosures require you to
acknowledge that you understand the risks associated with buying penny stocks
and that you can absorb the loss of your entire investment. Penny stocks are low
priced securities that do not have a very high trading volume. Consequently, the
price of the stock is often volatile and you may not be able to buy or sell the
stock when you want to.
FINANCIAL INDUSTRY REGULATORY AUTHORITY ("FINRA") SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS
MAY ALSO LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO BUY AND SELL OUR COMMON STOCK, WHICH COULD
DEPRESS THE PRICE OF OUR SHARES.
FINRA rules require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that
an investment is suitable for a customer before recommending that investment to
the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their
non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to
obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status and
investment objectives, among other things. Under interpretations of these rules,
FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced
securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRA
requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their
customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our
shares, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares, and thereby depress
our share price.
YOU MAY FACE SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ON THE RESALE OF YOUR SHARES DUE TO STATE
"BLUE SKY" LAWS.
Each state has its own securities laws, often called "blue sky" laws, which (1)
limit sales of securities to a state's residents unless the securities are
registered in that state or qualify for an exemption from registration, and (2)
govern the reporting requirements for broker-dealers doing business directly or
indirectly in the state. Before a security is sold in a state, there must be a
registration in place to cover the transaction, or it must be exempt from
registration. The applicable broker-dealer must also be registered in that
state.
We do not know whether our securities will be registered or exempt from
registration under the laws of any state. A determination regarding registration
will be made by those broker-dealers, if any, who agree to serve as market
makers for our common stock. We have not yet applied to have our securities
registered in any state and will not do so until we receive expressions of
interest from investors resident in specific states after they have viewed this
Prospectus. We will initially focus our offering in the state of Florida and
will rely on exemptions found in section 517.061 of the Florida Securities and
Investor Protection Act. There may be significant state blue sky law
restrictions on the ability of investors to sell, and on purchasers to buy, our
securities. You should therefore consider the resale market for our common stock
to be limited, as you may be unable to resell your shares without the
significant expense of state registration or qualification.
USE OF PROCEEDS
Our offering is being made on a self-underwritten basis: no minimum number of
shares must be sold in order for the offering to proceed. The offering price per
share is $0.0115 . The following table sets forth the uses of proceeds assuming
the sale of 33%, 66% and 100%, respectively, of the securities offered for sale
by us.

Even if we are able to sell all of the securities being offered in this
Prospectus, we will still require approximately $500,000 (including the
anticipated $34,500 capital raise) to cover our anticipated expenses over the
next 18 months. Please review our disclosure titled "Plan of Operations" in the
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" elsewhere in this Prospectus. Please note that there can be no
assurance that we will be able to raise such funds.
If we are only able to sell less than 33% of the securities we are offering,
substantially all of the funds raised by this offering will be spent on assuring
that we meet our corporate and disclosure obligations so that we remain in good
standing with the State of Florida and maintain our status as a reporting issuer
with the SEC.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The offering price for the shares in this offering was arbitrarily determined.
In determining the initial public offering price of the shares we considered
several factors including the following:
o our start up status;
o our new business structure and operations as well as lack of client base;
o prevailing market conditions, including the history and prospects for our
industry;
o market conditions tend to be harder on new businesses;
o our future prospects and the experience of our management;
o our capital structure;
Therefore, the public offering price of the shares does not necessarily bear any
relationship to established valuation criteria and may not be indicative of
prices that may prevail at any time or from time to time in the public market
for the common stock. You cannot be sure that a public market for any of our
securities will develop and continue or that the securities will ever trade at a
price at or higher than the offering price in this offering.
- 20 -
DILUTION OF THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR YOUR SHARES
The price of the current offering is fixed at $0.0115 per share. This price is
significantly greater than the price paid by our Sole officer and director for
common equity since our inception on November 22, 2011. Our sole officer and
Director paid $ 0.001 per share, a difference of $0.0105 per share lower than
the share price in this offering.
Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net
tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net
tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total
liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a
result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being
offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of
the lower book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders. The
following tables compare the differences of your investment in our shares with
the investment of our existing stockholders.

THE OFFERING
We are registering 3,000,000 shares of our common stock for offer and sale at
$0.0115 per share.
There is currently no active trading market for our common stock, and such a
market may not develop or be sustained. We currently plan to have our common
stock quote on the OTC Bulletin Board, subject to the effectiveness of this
Registration Statement. In addition, a market maker will be required to file a
Form 211 with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and FINRA has
to clear the form 211 before the market maker will be able to make a market in
our shares of common stock. Once the market maker is able to make a market, a
market should develop. At the date hereof, we are not aware that any market
maker has any such intention.
- 21 -
We may not sell the shares registered herein until the registration statement
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission is effective. Further, we will
not offer the shares through a broker-dealer or anyone affiliated with a
broker-dealer. Upon effectiveness, all of the shares being registered herein may
become tradable. The stock may be traded or listed only to the extent that there
is interest by broker-dealers in acting as a market maker in our stock. Despite
our best efforts, it may not be able to convince any broker/dealers to act as
market-makers and make quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board. We may consider
pursuing a market maker to obtain a quote on the OTCBB after this registration
becomes effective and we have completed our offering.
The price per share will remain at $0.0115 even if we obtain a quote on any
exchange or are quoted on the Over-The-Counter (OTC) Bulletin Board, the
offering price of $0.0115 will not change for the duration of the offering.
We will receive all of the proceeds from such sales of securities and are
bearing all expenses in connection with the registration of our shares.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We are offering the shares on a "self-underwritten" basis directly through Mr.
Andrew Keck, our sole officer and director named herein. Mr. Keck, will not
receive any commissions or other remuneration of any kind in connection with his
participation in this offering based either directly or indirectly on
transactions in securities.
This offering is a self-underwritten offering, which means that it does not
involve the participation of an underwriter to market, distribute or sell the
shares offered under this prospectus. This offering is also being made on a best
efforts basis with no minimum amount required to close the transaction. In
addition, investments made in the offering will not subject to refund, will not
be held in escrow and will be immediately available for our use. This offering

BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW
--------
We are a development stage company, incorporated in the state of Florida on
November 22, 2011, as a for-profit company, and electing a fiscal year end of
November 30. Our business and registered office is located at 221 Beach Road,
Suite 114, Siesta Key FL 34242. Our telephone number is 941-284-5053.
We have not established any business operations and have not achieved any
revenues. As at November 30, 2011, we had normal cash assets of $8,900 and has
incurred losses of $2,100. Since our incorporation, the development of our
business has been limited to organizational matters, the preparation of our
business plan and the preparation of the financial statements and other
information presented in this Prospectus. In order to implement our business
plan, we anticipate that we will require total financing of $200,000 in Stage 1,
and $300,000 in Stage 2 for a total of $500,000 in addition to the $34,500 in
financing that we are seeking to raise through this offering. Our ability to
implement our business plan is entirely dependent on our ability to secure
sufficient financing; however, there is no guarantee that we will be successful
in this regard. Other than the preparation and filing of this offering, we have
not taken any steps to secure the balance of the financing that we will require
in order to implement our business plan. Furthermore, even if we successfully
execute our business plan and establish operations, there is no guarantee that
there will be a significant market for our products or that we will achieve
significant revenues, if any.
In their audit report dated December 8, 2011; our auditors have expressed an
opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an
outgoing business. Because our sole director and officer may be unwilling or
unable to loan or advance any additional capital to us, we believe that if we do
not raise additional capital within 12 months of the effective date of this
registration statement, we may require to suspend or cease the implementation of
our business plan. Due to the fact that there is no minimum investment and no
refunds on sold shares, you may be investing in a company that will not have
funds necessary to develop its business strategies. As such we may have to cease
operations and you could lose your entire investment.
We intend to Plan and Develop a Facility to distill, bottle, market and
distribute alcoholic beverages (Ultra Premium Vodka primarily) in Siesta Key
Florida proximity. (Siesta Key was voted the #1 beach in the United States.
(www.sarasotafl.org/siesta-key).
Vodka is one of the world's most popular spirits and we intend to produce an
Ultra Premium Brand utilizing the marketing of Siesta Key #1 beach in the USA
notoriety.
The intended emphasis is to develop a Ultra Premium Alcoholic Beverage Brand
distillery in the Siesta Key, Florida proximity.

We intend to contract with consultants to provide the necessary experience and
background to assist us in the implementation of the Vodka making process,
bottling, marketing and distribution.
We anticipate it will take 18 months to start marketing this product line.
We have not accomplished any of our intended efforts to date. We have not
generated any revenues to date and activities have been limited to develop our
business plan.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
MARKET INFORMATION
Our common stock is not traded on any exchange. We intend to have a market maker
request to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board once this
Prospectus has been declared effective by the SEC; however, there is no
guarantee that we will be able to obtain a market maker to request such a quote.
There is currently no trading market for our common stock and there is no
assurance that a regular trading market will ever develop. OTC Bulletin Board
securities are not listed and not traded on the floor of an organized national
or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTC Bulletin Board securities transactions
are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers. OTC
Bulletin Board issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the
financial and other requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.
To have our common stock listed on any of the public trading markets, including
the OTC Bulletin Board, we will require a market maker to sponsor our
securities. We have not yet engaged any market maker to sponsor our securities,
and there is no guarantee that our securities will meet the requirements for
quotation or that our securities will be accepted for quote on the OTC Bulletin
Board. This could prevent us from developing a trading market for our common
stock.
HOLDERS
As of the date of this Prospectus there was one holder of record of our common
stock.
DIVIDENDS
To date, we have not paid dividends on shares of our common stock and we do not
expect to declare or pay dividends on shares of our common stock in the
foreseeable future. The payment of any dividends will depend upon our future
earnings, if any, our financial condition, and other factors deemed relevant by
our Board of Directors.
EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS
As of the date of this Prospectus we did not have any equity compensation plans.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements
that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like:
"believe", "expect", "estimate", "anticipate", "intend", "project" and similar
expressions, or words that, by their nature, refer to future events. You should
not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only
as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking statements are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from historical results or our predictions.
- 29 -
Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (USD or US$) and
are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles. All references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our
capital stock.
Overview
--------
We are a development-stage company, incorporated in the State of Florida on
November 22, 2011, as a for-profit company, and an established fiscal year of
November 30. We have not yet generated or realized any revenues from business
operations. Our auditor has issued a going concerned opinion. This means there
is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next
twelve (12) months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills.
Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than loans we undertake.
From inception through our current date, November 30, 2011, our business
operations have primarily been focused on developing our business plan. We have
spent a total of approximately $2,600 on start-up costs (legal, accounting and
administrative). We have not generated any revenue from business operations. All
cash currently held by us is the result of the sale of common stock to our sole
officer and director.
The proceeds from this offering will satisfy our cash requirements for up to 18
months. If we are unable to raise additional monies, we only have enough capital
to cover the costs of this offering and to begin developing business plan. The
expenses of this offering include the preparation of this prospectus, the filing
of this registration statement and transfer agent fees. As of November 30, 2011
we had $8,900 cash on hand. This cash will not cover the expenses of this
offering or our working capital requirements for even one month given the
undertaking of this offering and the expenses involved.
Plan of Operations
------------------
We believe we do not have adequate funds to satisfy our working capital
requirements for the next twelve months. We will need to raise additional
capital to continue our operations. During the 18 months following the
completion of this offering, we intend to implement our business and marketing
plan. We believe we must raise an additional $500,000 to pay for expenses
associated with our development over the next 18 months in addition to the
$34,500 capital raise. $200,000 will be used to finance anticipated activities
during Stage One of our development plan as described below, and $300,000 will
be used to finance anticipated activities during Stage Two of our development
plan as described below:
As of November 30, 2011, we had cash on hand of $8,900.

TOTAL STAGE ONE & TWO Estimated Budget $500,000
Many of the developments enumerated in Stage 2 are dependent on the completion
of objectives in Stage 1 and both Stages are dependent on us securing additional
financing even if we are able to sell all of the securities offered by this
Prospectus. There can be no assurance that we will be able to sell any of the
securities offered by this Prospectus or secure additional financing. If we are
able to raise some, but not all funds required to undertake the developments in
Stage ONE and Stage TWO, our management will re-examine our proposed business
activities to use our resources most efficiently. In this event, our focus will
likely be on spending available funds on assuring that we retain our reporting
status with the SEC and developing our product to attract investors.
If we are unable to raise additional funds we will not be able to complete any
of the milestones in either Stage ONE or Stage TWO. Due to the fact that many of
the milestones are dependent on each other, if we do not raise any additional
capital we will not be able to implement any facets of our business plan.
- 31 -
We intend to pursue capital through public or private financing as well as
borrowings and other sources in order to finance our businesses activities. We
cannot guarantee that additional funding will be available on favorable terms,
if at all. If adequate funds are not available, then our ability to continue our
operations may be significantly hindered.
We have not yet begun the selection of any of our Ultra Premium Vodka Brand
product and even if we do secure adequate financing, there can be no assurance
that our Ultra Premium Vodka product will be accepted by the marketplace and
that we will be able to generate revenues.
Our management does not plan to hire any employees at this time. Our sole
officer and director will be responsible for business plan development.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an
evaluation of our performance. We have spent $ 2,100 on our operations as of
November 30, 2011 on selling, general and administrative expenses and our only
other activity consisted of the sale of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock to
our sole officer and director for aggregate proceeds of $9,000.
We have not generated any revenues from our operations. We cannot guarantee we
will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks
inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including the
financial risks associated with the limited capital resources currently
available to us for the implementation of our business strategies. (See "Risk
Factors"). To become profitable and competitive, we must develop the business
and marketing plan and execute the plan. Our management will attempt to secure
financing through various means including borrowing and investment from
institutions and private individuals.
Since inception, the majority of our time has been spent creating its business
plan, and preparing for a primary financial offering.
Our results of operations are summarized below:

November 30, 2011
(AUDITED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of the date of this prospectus, we had yet to generate any revenues from our
business operations. For the period ended November 30, 2011, we issued 9,000,000
shares of common stock to our sole officer and director for cash proceeds of
$9,000. We did not issue any common shares during the three month period ended
November 30, 2011.
- 32 -
We anticipate needing a minimum of $200,000 for Stage ONE and an additional
$300,000 for Stage TWO, totaling $500,000 in order to effectively execute our
business plan over the next eighteen months. Currently available cash is not
sufficient to allow us to commence full execution of our business plan. Our
business expansion will require significant capital resources that may be funded
through the issuance of common stock or of notes payable or other debt
arrangements that may affect our debt structure. Despite our current financial
status we believe that we may be able to issue notes payable or debt instruments
in order to start executing our business plan. However, there can be no
assurance that we will be able to raise money in this fashion and have not
entered into any agreements that would obligate a third party to provide us with
capital.
Through November 30, 2011, we spent $2,600 on general operating expenses. We
raised the cash amounts to be used in these activities from the sale of common
stock to our Sole officer and director.
Our current cash on hand is $8,900 which will be used to meet our current
obligations. We estimate that our current cash will satisfy our limited
operations for six to nine months. We are seeking additional cash through sales
of our stock, which, based on our disclosure in our filing titles "Use of
Proceeds" we anticipate that our raise, at any level (30%, 50%, etc), will be
adequate to sustain our operations for a twelve month period while meeting our
state and SEC filing required compliance. Our success in our raise will enable
us to further accelerate our development of our operating plan.
To date, the Company has managed to keep our monthly cash flow requirement low
for two reasons. First, our Sole officer does not draw a salary at this time.
Second, the Company has been able to keep our operating expenses to a minimum by
operating in a temporary office space rented from a non-related party for
$100.00 per month on a month to month basis.
As of the date of this registration statement, the current funds available to
the Company will not be sufficient to continue maintaining a reporting status.
Management believes if the Company cannot maintain its reporting status with the
SEC it will have to cease all efforts directed towards the Company. As such, any
investment previously made would be lost in its entirety.
The Company currently has no external sources of liquidity such as arrangements
with credit institutions or off-balance sheet arrangements that will have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition
or immediate access to capital.
If the Company is unable to raise the funds partially through this offering the
Company will seek alternative financing through means such as borrowings from
institutions or private individuals. There can be no assurance that the Company
will be able to keep costs from being more than these estimated amounts or that
the Company will be able to raise such funds. Even if we sell all shares offered
through this registration statement, we expect that the Company will seek
additional financing in the future. However, the Company may not be able to
obtain additional capital or generate sufficient revenues to fund our
operations. If we are unsuccessful at raising sufficient funds, for whatever
reason, to fund our operations, the Company may be forced to seek a buyer for
our business or another entity with which we could create a joint venture. If
all of these alternatives fail, we expect that the Company will be required to
seek protection from creditors under applicable bankruptcy laws.
Our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern and believes that our ability is dependent on our
ability to implement our business plan, raise capital and generate revenues. See
Note 2 of our financial statements.
- 33 -
Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has
resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to
promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets.
Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements.
Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of
national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on
which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that
are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that
address board of directors' independence, audit committee oversight, and the
adoption of a code of ethics. Our Board of Directors is comprised of one
individual who is also our executive officer. Our executive officer makes
decisions on all significant corporate matters such as the approval of terms of
the compensation of our executive officer and the oversight of the accounting
functions.
Although the Company has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct the
Company has not yet adopted any of these other corporate governance measures
and, since our securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange,
the Company is not required to do so. The Company has not adopted corporate
governance measures such as an audit or other independent committees of our
board of directors as we presently do not have any independent directors. If we
expand our board membership in future periods to include additional independent
directors, the Company may seek to establish an audit and other committees of
our board of directors. It is possible that if our Board of Directors included
independent directors and if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate
governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances
that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and
that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. For example,
in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of at
least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as
compensation packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director
nominees may be made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the
outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind
our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their
investment decisions.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.
INFLATION
The effect of inflation on our revenues and operating results has not been
significant.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our financial statements are affected by the accounting policies used and the
estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A
complete quote of these policies is included in Note 3 of the notes to our
financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2011. We have identified
below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the
presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows,
and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
- 34 -
USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES - Expenditures for research,
development, and engineering of products will be expensed as incurred.
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE - Basic loss per share is computed by dividing
net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is
computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares.
Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares
issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the
conversion of notes payable to common stock. In periods in which a net
loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are
considered antidilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. At
November 30, 2011 the Company did not have any potentially dilutive common
shares.
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Peter Messineo, CPA, has audited our Financial Statements for the period from
November 22, 2011 (date of inception) through November 30, 2011 and to the
extent set forth in its report, which are included herein in reliance upon the
authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing. There were no
disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two
fiscal years and interim period.
CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our
officers and directors, and critical employees. The Code of Business Conduct and
Ethics are attached to this registration statement as Exhibits 14-1.
MANAGEMENT
Officers and Directors
----------------------
Our Sole officer and director will serve until his successor is elected and
qualified. Our officers are elected by the board of directors to a term of one
(1) year and serve until their successor is duly elected and qualified, or until
they are removed from office. The board of directors has no nominating, auditing
or compensation committees.
The name, address, age and position of our president, secretary/treasurer, and
director and vice president is set forth below:
NAME AND ADDRESS AGE POSITION(S)
--------------------- --- --------------------------------------------------
Andrew Keck 41 President, Secretary/ Treasurer
221 Beach Road Principal Executive Officer
Siesta Key, FL 34242 Principal Financial Officer and sole member of the
Board of Directors
The person named above has held his offices/positions since the inception of our
company and is expected to hold his offices/positions until the next annual
meeting of our stockholders.
- 35 -
Business Experience
-------------------
ANDREW KECK, SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR
Mr. Keck, our founder, has served as our sole officer and director since our
inception in 2011. From 2007 to the present, he has been an account manager and
merchandiser with Southern Wine and Spirits, an unrelated entity, gaining
extensive experience in marketing wine and spirits. Mr. Keck also developed his
management, customer service, and sales skills working as a production manager,
a warehouse manager, a customer service representative, and a national sales
representative/team leader at Audio Visual Innovations, Inc. from March 1998 to
September 2006. Overall, Mr. Keck has over twenty years of management and sales
experience.
Mr. Keck maintains and improves his education by attending various educational
workshops, lectures and classes (for example: Conflict Management and
Confrontation Skills, Excelling as a First Time Manager or Supervisor and
Inventory Control and Cycle Counting).
It is our belief that Mr. Keck's overall management and sales experience enables
him to serve as our sole officer and director.
OTHER DIRECTORSHIPS
Mr. Keck, does not hold, and has not held during the past five years, any other
directorships in any company with a class of securities registered pursuant to
section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of section 15(d)
of such Act or any company registered as an investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Mr. Keck, is not obligated to commit his full time and attention to our business
and, accordingly, he may encounter a conflict of interest in allocating his time
between our operations and those of other businesses. In the course of his other
business activities, he may become aware of investment and business
opportunities which may be appropriate for presentation to us as well as other
entities to which he owes a fiduciary duty. As a result, he may have conflicts
of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity
should be presented. He may also in the future become affiliated with entities
that are engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct.
In general, officers and directors of a corporation are required to present
business opportunities to the corporation if:
o the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity;
o the opportunity is within the corporation's line of business; and
o it would be unfair to the corporation and its stockholders not to bring
the opportunity to the attention of the corporation.
COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Our Sole director has not established any committees, including an Audit
Committee, a Compensation Committee or a Nominating Committee, any committee
performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being
undertaken by our Sole director. Because we do not have any independent
directors, our Sole director believes that the establishment of committees of
the Board would not provide any benefits to our company and could be considered
more form than substance.
- 36 -
We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates
that may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum
qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Sole director established a
process for identifying and evaluating director nominees. We have not adopted a
policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director
candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our
Sole director has not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have
never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve
on our Board of Directors. Given our relative size and lack of directors and
officers insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders
will make such a recommendation in the near future.
While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the
event such a proposal is made, all current members of our Board will participate
in the consideration of director nominees.
Our Sole director is not an "audit committee financial expert" within the
meaning of Item 401(e) of Regulation S-K. In general, an "audit committee
financial expert" is an individual member of the audit committee or Board of
Directors who:
o understands generally accepted accounting principles and financial
statements,
o is able to assess the general application of such principles in connection
with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves,
o has experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial
statements comparable to the breadth and complexity to our financial
statements,
o understands internal controls over financial reporting, and
o understands audit committee functions.
Our Board of Directors is comprised solely of Mr. Keck, who was integral to our
formation and who is involved in our day to day operations. While we would
prefer to have an audit committee financial expert on our board of directors,
Mr. Keck, does not have a professional background in finance or accounting. As
with most small, early stage companies until such time our company further
develops its business, achieves a stronger revenue base and has sufficient
working capital to purchase directors and officers insurance, the Company does
not have any immediate prospects to attract independent directors. When the
Company is able to expand our Board of Directors to include one or more
independent directors, the Company intends to establish an Audit Committee of
our Board of Directors. It is our intention that one or more of these
independent directors will also qualify as an audit committee financial expert.
Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a
majority of our Board members be independent and the Company is not currently
otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any
portion of our Board of Directors include "independent" directors, nor are we
required to establish or maintain an Audit Committee or other committee of our
Board of Directors.
WE DO NOT HAVE ANY INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS AND THE COMPANY HAS NOT VOLUNTARILY
IMPLEMENTED VARIOUS CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MEASURES, IN THE ABSENCE OF WHICH,
STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE MORE LIMITED PROTECTIONS AGAINST INTERESTED DIRECTOR
TRANSACTIONS, CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND SIMILAR MATTERS.
- 37 -
Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has
resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to
promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets.
Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements.
Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of
national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or the NASDAQ Stock Market, on
which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that
are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are these that
address board of directors' independence, audit committee oversight, and the
adoption of a code of ethics. Our Board of Directors is comprised of one
individual who is also our executive officer. Our executive officer makes
decisions on all significant corporate matters such as the approval of terms of
the compensation of our executive officer and the oversight of the accounting
functions.
Although we have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, we have not yet
adopted any of these other corporate governance measures and, since our
securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange, we are not
required to do so. We have not adopted corporate governance measures such as an
audit or other independent committees of our board of directors as we presently
do not have any independent directors. If we expand our board membership in
future periods to include additional independent directors, we may seek to
establish an audit and other committees of our board of directors. It is
possible that our Board of Directors included independent directors and if we
were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders
would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions
where being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been
implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit,
independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation
packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees may be
made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the
matters being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current
lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
We have made no provisions for paying cash or non-cash compensation to our sole
officer and director. No salaries are being paid at the present time, no
salaries or other compensation were paid in cash, or otherwise, for services
performed prior to November 22, 2011, our date of inception, and no compensation
will be paid unless and until our operations generate sufficient cash flows.
The table below summarizes all compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to
our named executive officer for all services rendered in all capacities to us
for the period from inception (November 22, 2011) through November 30, 2011.

There were no grants of stock options since inception to the date of this
Prospectus.
We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended
to serve as incentive for performance.
Our Sole director has not adopted a stock option plan. We have no plans to adopt
a stock option plan, but may choose to do so in the future. If such a plan is
adopted, this may be administered by the board or a committee appointed by the
board (the "Committee"). The committee would have the power to modify, extend or
renew outstanding options and to authorize the grant of new options in
substitution therefore, provided that any such action may not impair any rights
under any option previously granted. We may develop an incentive based stock
option plan for our officers and directors and may reserve up to 10% of our
outstanding shares of common stock for that purpose.
OPTIONS GRANTS DURING THE LAST FISCAL YEAR / STOCK OPTION PLANS
We do not currently have a stock option plan in favor of any director, officer,
consultant or employee of our company. No individual grants of stock options,
whether or not in tandem with stock appreciation rights known as SARs or
freestanding SARs have been made to our sole director and officer since our
inception; accordingly, no stock options have been granted or exercised by our
sole director and officer since we were founded.
AGGREGATED OPTIONS EXERCISES IN LAST FISCAL YEAR
No individual grants of stock options, whether or not in tandem with stock
appreciation rights known as SARs or freestanding SARs have been made to our
Sole director and officer since our inception; accordingly, no stock options
have been granted or exercised by our Sole director and officer since we were
founded.

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS AND AWARDS
We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended
to serve as incentive for performance. No individual grants or agreements
regarding future payouts under non-stock price-based plans have been made to our
sole director and officer or any employee or consultant since our inception;
accordingly, no future payouts under non-stock price-based plans or agreements
have been granted or entered into or exercised by our sole director and officer
or employees or consultants since we were founded.
COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
Our Sole director is not compensated by us for acting as such. He is reimbursed
for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred. There are no arrangements
pursuant to which our Sole director is or will be compensated in the future for
any services provided as a director.
We do not have any agreements for compensating our directors for their services
in their capacity as directors, although such directors are expected in the
future to receive stock options to purchase shares of our common stock as
awarded by our board of directors.
EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS, TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT, CHANGE-IN-CONTROL ARRANGEMENTS
There are no employment contracts or other contracts or arrangements with our
officers or directors other than those disclosed in this report. There are no
compensation plans or arrangements, including payments to be made by us, with
respect to Andrew Keck, that would result from his resignation, retirement or
any other termination. There are no arrangements for directors, officers or
employees that would result from a change-in-control.
INDEBTEDNESS OF DIRECTORS, SENIOR OFFICERS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND OTHER

we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceedings or pending litigation.

================================================================================
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders:
Global Group Enterprises Corp.
I have audited the balance sheet of Global Group Enterprises Corp. as of
November 30, 2011 and the related statement of operations, changes in
stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the period November 22, 2011 (date of
inception) through November 30, 2011. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility was to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.
I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements were free of material misstatement. The Company was not
required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. My audit included consideration of internal control
over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that were
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. I believe that my audit provide a reasonable basis for
my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements, referred to above, present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Global Group Enterprises Corp.
as of November 30, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the period November 22, 2011 (Date of Inception) through November 30, 2011,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the Company has no revenues from operation, has not emerged from the
development stage, and is requiring traditional financing or equity funding to
commence its operating plan. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Further information and
management's plans in regard to this uncertainty were also described in Note 2.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.

GLOBAL GROUP ENTERPRISES CORP.
(A Development Stage Corporation)
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period from November 22, 2011 (Date of Inception)
through November 30, 2011
NOTE 1. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Global Group Enterprises Corp. (the "Company"), a Florida corporation, was
formed to produce, market and sell Ultra Premium Vodka product to retailers.
The Company was incorporated on November 22, 2011 (Date of Inception) with its
corporate headquarters located in Siesta Key, Florida and its year-end is
November 30, 2011.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. For the period ended November 30,
2011, the Company had no operations. As of November 30, 2011, the Company has
not emerged from the development stage. In view of these matters, the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability
to begin operations and to achieve a level of profitability. The Company intends
on financing its future development activities and its working capital needs
largely from the sale of public equity securities with some additional funding
from other traditional financing sources, including term notes until such time
that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital
requirements. The financial statements of the Company do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be
necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies followed are:
USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - The Company's balance sheet includes certain financial
instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities
approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time
between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - All cash, other than held in escrow, is maintained
with a major financial institution in the United States. Deposits with this bank
may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Temporary cash
investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to
be cash equivalents.

(A Development Stage Corporation)
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Period from November 22, 2011 (Date of Inception)
through November 30, 2011
DEFERRED INCOME TAXES AND VALUATION ALLOWANCE - The Company accounts for income
taxes under FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes." Under the asset and liability method of
FASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under FASB ASC 740, the
effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance
is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that
the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES - Expenditures for research, development, and
engineering of products are expensed as incurred. There has been no research and
development cost incurred for the period November 22, 2011 (date of inception)
through November 30, 2011.
COMMON STOCK - The Company records common stock issuances when all of the legal
requirements for the issuance of such common stock have been satisfied.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE - Net income (loss) per share is calculated
in accordance with FASB ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share." The weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic
earning or loss per share. Diluted earnings or loss per share is computed using
the weighted average number of shares and diluted potential common shares
outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares
assumed to be exercised.
Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding at November 30, 2011. As of November 30,
2011, the Company had no dilutive potential common shares.
REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION - The Company has no current source of revenue;
therefore the Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding the recognition
of revenue or cost.
ADVERTISING COSTS - The Company's policy regarding advertising is to expense
advertising when incurred. There has been no advertising cost incurred for the
three months ended November 30, 2011 or for the period November 22, 2011 (date
of inception) through November 30, 2011.
RECENTLY ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal
securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB
Accounting Standards Codification(TM) ("ASC") is the sole source of
authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the
Company. Management has reviewed the aforementioned rules and releases and
believes any effect will not have a material impact on the Company's present or
future financial statements.

For the Period from November 22, 2011 (Date of Inception)
through November 30, 2011
NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES - Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of
transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently
due plus deferred taxes resulting from temporary differences. Such temporary
differences result from differences in the carrying value of assets and
liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets
and liabilities represent the future tax consequences of those differences,
which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are
recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to
reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

===================
The Company did not have any temporary differences for the period from November
22, 2011 (Date of Inception) through November 30, 2011.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 "Uncertainty in Income
Taxes" (ASC 740-10), on November 22, 2011. The Company has not recognized a
liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of
the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been
provided since there is no unrecognized benefit since the date of adoption. The
Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the
implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the
Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in
interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
NOTE 5. SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY
COMMON STOCK
The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 250,000,000 shares with a
par value of $0.0001. The Company issued 9,000,000 shares of our $0.0001 par
value common stock to Andrew Keck, our CEO and sole Director, on November 22,
2011 for cash in the amount of $9,000 (per share price of $0.001).
There are no warrants or options outstanding to acquire any additional shares of
common stock of the Company.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On November 22, 2011, the Company sold 9,000,000 shares of common stock to its
founder for $0.001 per share.
The officer and director of the Company is or may be involved in other business
activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business
opportunities that become available. He may face a conflict in selecting between
the Company and other business interests. The Company has not formulated a
policy for the resolution of such conflicts.
The above is not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would have been
incurred had a comparable transaction been entered into with independent
parties.
NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCY
From time to time the Company may be a party to litigation matters involving
claims against the Company. Management believes that there are no current
matters that would have a material effect on the Company's financial position or
results of operations.
NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
As of December 8, 2011, the date the audited financial statements were available
to be issued, there are no other subsequent events that are required to be
recorded or disclosed in the accompanying financial statements as of and for the
period ended November 30, 2011.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Title XXXVI, Chapter 607, of the Florida Statutes (the "Florida Business
Corporation Act") permits, but does not require, corporations to indemnify a
director, officer or control person of the corporation for any liability
asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity
as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of his status as such,
if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed
to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, unless
the Articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, whether or not the corporation
has provided for indemnification in its Articles of Incorporation. Our Articles
do not provide for any additional indemnification.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Florida law, we are
informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
During the last three fiscal years we have had the following issuances of
unregistered securities:
In November 22, of 2011, we issued 9,000,000 shares to Mr. Andrew Keck, the
Company's founder, in exchange for cash of $9,000. We relied upon Section 4(2)
of the Securities Act, which exempts from registration "transactions by an
issuer not involving any public offering.
It is our belief that Mr. Keck, had such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that he was capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
the investment and therefore did not need the protections offered by registering
his shares under Securities and Act of 1933, as amended. Mr. Keck, certified
that he was purchasing the shares for his own account, with investment intent.
This offering was not accompanied by general advertisement or general
solicitation and the shares were issued with a Rule 144 restrictive legend.

UNDERTAKINGS
The registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually
or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered)
and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no
more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price
set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in
the effective registration statement; and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the
registration statement;
II-2
2. That for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act,
each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof;
3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering; and
4. That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under
the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the
securities, the registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of
securities of the registrant pursuant to this registration statement,
regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to
the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser
by means of any of the following communications, the registrant will be
a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such
securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the registrant
relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule
424;
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared

the offering containing material information about the
registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the
registrant; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made
by the registrant to the purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of
1933, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
