Frequently Asked Questions

What is a GPO?

A Group Purchasing Organization (GPO), like The Beverage Federation, streamlines your procurement process and increases your buying power. How do we do it? The GPO combines the spend of breweries, distilleries, and wineries, with similar product lines, to achieve better pricing, service, and terms.

Brewery and Winery members leverage negotiated GPO contracts, which have discount pricing and better terms. A GPO saves internal resources time and energy from having to focus on supplier procurement negotiation and can save members an average of 10-18% on products and services.

A GPO also benefits Suppliers, with expanded access to clients, growth opportunities, and improved forecasting for revenue, availability, and capacity.

I only wanted to know if you had better pricing on Beer Cans?

(Bottles, PakTech, Boots, cardboard, tap handles, etc.)
That is typically how people find us. They have heard from a member that we 'helped save money' on something the brewery recently bought. Become a member and we'll get you started with our procurement contracts that are set up to save money on your next buy.

Would a PO on an order go to the Federation?

No, there is no change in how you purchase. Owners simply need to list the contract number on their PO and send it to the supplier.

Do you warehouse or buy in bulk?

No, we are not a distributor or wholesaler. We set up partnerships and contract options with suppliers that you can then leverage directly.
