“We at Tryon are very excited about representing a craft brewery from Mexico such a Day of the Dead. The package catches the eye and the liquid pleases the taste buds,” commented Chris Angel, Beer Brand Manager, Tryon Distributing.
Tryon’s big expansion occurred throughout 2002 and 2003 when Tryon purchased four other distributors. Today, Tryon Distributing, headquartered in Charlotte, employs approximately 200 employees who work across the entire state of North Carolina.
