Founders Brewing Co. Completes Statewide Distribution in Alabama

Grand Rapids, MI – Founders Brewing Co. announced today that it has partnered with Allstate Beverage and Gulf Distributing to complete statewide distribution in Alabama.

“The need for us to complete statewide distribution has been apparent for some time now,” said Founders’ Vice President of Wholesaler Development Michael Bell. “We have had a strong presence in the northern portion of the state but have always fielded requests from craft consumers and retailers to have more access to our beers throughout Alabama. We are excited to have these partnerships with Allstate and Gulf and look forward to their market expertise in support of our many brands.”

Allstate Beverage will cover the greater mid-state area surrounding Montgomery, which includes 25 counties. Gulf Distributing will cover the greater Mobile area, which includes an additional seven counties in the gulf region. With partners, Birmingham Beverage, already covering the northern counties, this expansion will cover the entire state.

“Gulf Distributing of Mobile and Allstate Beverage are honored to partner with Founders to bring their world-class, award winning beer to our southern Alabama market,” said Gulf Distributing Holdings Vice President Evan Maisel. “Due to the quality and innovation of their products, Founders is becoming one of the most well-recognized craft beer brands in the country, and we look forward to working with Alabama retailers to build the Founders brand in our regional area.”Launch events for these regions begin on Wednesday, January 25.
