About This Course
This course covers distribution in the craft beverage industry. In North America and other parts of the world, alcohol distribution is highly regulated on both national and state levels. As the craft beverage industry has grown, distribution has faced intense consolidation, creating fewer and fewer wholesalers to choose from. This course covers the internal sales department structure and function, the ins and outs of distribution, as well as the dynamics of different systems for navigation through various tiers of distribution channels (retail and wholesale) to get product into the hands of consumers.
