OMG Group Ltd (ASX: OMG) (“OMG Group” or “the Company”) OMG Group is pleased to confirm that it has
secured the first purchase order in the Australian market for premium Japanese matcha as part of its exclusive
supply & distribution agreement with SANDAI Group, a leading Japan-based matcha manufacturer (refer ASX
Announcement 19 November 2025).
The $16,000 purchase order was placed following product trials conducted by OMG Group. The counterparty was
part of the sampling audience and placed the order after OMG Group was confirmed as the exclusive Australian
distributor of premium SANDAI matcha.
The maiden purchase order was made without any additional marketing or advertising by OMG Group. Due to
urgency, the customer requested the matcha product to be air-freighted (at their cost), for use as part of their own
bespoke RTD (ready-to-drink) beverage.
The maiden purchase order establishes a new high-margin revenue channel for OMG Group as an exclusive
wholesale distributor of raw SANDAI matcha in the Australian market, alongside the planned integration of
SANDAI matcha into new product launches across the OMG brand portfolio.
In accordance with the terms of the supply agreement, the initial container of SANDAI matcha is scheduled to
depart Japan in January 2026, with the Company fielding additional inbound queries from prospective wholesale
customers.
