The three-tier structure of beer distributor
California has existed since the end of
prohibition, and it is reasonable to predict it
will continue to exist for some time. There are
three major stakeholders in the selling of
alcohol before it reaches the customer, according
to the three-tier system 1. The creator
(importer, distillery, winemaker, or brewery) 2.
a wholesaler 3. The merchant (restaurant, bar,
or store)

Building connections with retailers and selling
their portfolio of goods are all part of the
distributor's job. Nevertheless, in a competitive
craft beer industry, they rely primarily on the
brands they offer for support. Not only do local
beer distributors depend on brands to generate
buzz and recognition, but they also want brands
to collaborate with them in the market.

How can alcohol distributors cultivate brand
relationships?
Although the distributor officially sells and
delivers the beverage to a customer, success
requires the brand and the distributor to
collaborate. Brewery employees, for instance, may
make all the difference by expressing their story
and communicating their enthusiasm for what they
do straight to an account. It is a balance
between the distributor and the brand the brands
that go out in the market more, developing
connections alongside the sales team or
distributor, create a bond that directly
influences their market presence. Although
market connections are essential in generating
sales, it may be impossible for certain companies
to visit every shop with their distributor.
Fortunately, we know that there are other methods
for businesses to reach out to the consumer and
communicate their story. Depending on the
company's resources and marketing strategy,
methods such as social media, event sponsorships,
sample events, merchandising, and point of sale
are all ways to raise its profile and build
excitement in a market.

It is essential to attend events that you and
your distributor believe are a good match for
your brand, which involves assessing the event's
cost, demography and assisting the brand and
distributor in accomplishing their goals. It is
thought that a brand's social media influences
market buzz and can hinder retail sell-through if
not done to support a launch.
