Article regarding non-notable company in Cambodia with significant WP:ADVERT issues. The article was created by user with WP:COI as there is a strong connection with the company's pricipal investor in the company. This user has also created articles about other non-notable Cambodia companies in which this firm has invesed (See: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nautisco Seafood) User may also have a WP:SOCK issue (See: (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Douglasclayton) The article's brief references are all puff pieces by small local publications hosted on the investment firm's website. Searches show limited reason to believe this is a notable company (the only event of note for the company is that it was bought). To put the size of the company in perspective, the company was founded in 2009 with $2 million of startup capital |► ϋrбanяeneωaℓ • TALK ◄| 22:33, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a microbrewery. No sources that read like they are truly independent. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 14:05, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - bare reference to the name only in a NY Times article which merely mentions that the brewery is new. Thus, not enough time to become notable is another issue with this one. Geoff ^{Who, me?} 21:52, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:CORP. Article lacks the depth of coverage from multiple secondary sources necessary to establish notability. One feature article from a lifestyle magazine is not sufficient. Uncle Dick (talk) 17:49, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
