TURLOCK, Calif.— Dust Bowl Brewing Co. continues to expand distribution with the addition of Guardian Distributors of LA based in Commerce, Calif. The partnership allows Dust Bowl Brewing Co. to significantly grow its footprint in the Southern California region, an ongoing goal for the Northern California craft brewery.
Established in 2016, Guardian will distribute Dust Bowl Brewing Co.’s core brands and specialty releases in Los Angeles, Orange and parts of San Bernardino counties. Guardian Distributors of LA is a boutique alcoholic beverage distribution company with a small, focused portfolio of products.
“We believe we’ve found an ideal partner in Guardian Distributors of LA,” comments Marc Jalbert, Director of Sales and Marketing, Dust Bowl Brewing Co. “Guardian shares our same dedication to excellent customer service. Because they maintain a hand-selected portfolio, they’re able to give their brands personalized attention. We appreciate that our beer arrives cold, stays cold and is transported cold to the retailer. Their care of the product ensures the utmost quality from our brewery to the end consumer.”
Jaie Neubauer, Founder and General Manager of Guardian Distributors, adds, “We’re pleased to welcome Dust Bowl Brewing Co. to our portfolio of craft beers. We’re very discerning when we take on a new brand and believe Dust Bowl will do very well in our markets. We expect the quality, variety and branding to be well received in Southern California.”
Dust Bowl Brewing Co. expects to launch with Guardian Distributors in December 2019. Dust Bowl Brewing Co. beers may be found throughout Central and Northern California, including the San Francisco Bay Area and Sacramento region, parts of Southern California, Nevada and Oklahoma.
