About the Beverage Federation

The Beverage Federation is a Group Purchasing Organization that makes purchasing simpler for brewery/winery/distillery owners and suppliers. We help you overcome purchasing hurdles so that you stay profitable.

Beware of little expenses;
a small leak will sink a great ship.

Benjamin Franklin

Several years ago, before starting the Beverage Federation, I learned that lesson the hard way with my own business. My company had millions in revenue, employees, IT, legal… We had all the things that you’re supposed to have as a business, but, regardless of how many extra hours I put in, we still struggled with profit margins. Eventually, we had to close our doors, which was the single hardest thing I’ve ever had to do in my professional career.

Had I known then what I know now about the power of purchasing, things would have been a lot different.

The Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) model has tremendous potential for the beverage industry.

I see hundreds of great small/medium breweries, wineries, and distilleries suffering from the same problems that I had years ago. They are all doing their own purchasing, spending too much money and time when buying, and not maintaining relationships with high-quality suppliers.

In 2022, The Beverage Federation was founded. We’re a GPO established to help both owners and suppliers develop long-term, profitable relationships.
