Island Coastal Lager Announces Launch with The Fresh Market

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Island Coastal Lager (ICL), is excited to announce their launch with The Fresh Market. Beginning this month, ICL will launch an in-store tasting program statewide in North Carolina and Florida.

“We have a great opportunity with Island Coastal 6-packs and 12-pack cans, as we partner with The Fresh Market. These packages are being added to all stores in our Island Coastal Lager footprint. As a valued partner, we will be investing in two-hour store tastings in all Florida and North Carolina stores. We feel like there are many synergies with The Fresh Market and Island Coastal Lager as our beer is made with no adjuncts or preservatives and no fillers such as rice or corn. The result is a clean refreshing American Lager”, said Tom Bradford, Director of Chain Sales for Island Coastal Lager

Since 1982, Fresh Market has been dedicated to providing a premium shopping experience, while offering the freshest options possible. “The Fresh Market is looking forward to connecting with ICL and its distribution partners to offer this new brand in our stores.”, said Chris Jones, Category Manager for The Fresh Market.
