New Age Beverages Corporation Expands Distribution
Post# of 617763
DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Apr 20, 2017) - New Age Beverages Corporation (
THE DISTRIBUTION EXPANSION
New Age Beverages that over the past nine months completed the mergers of Búcha Live Kombucha, XingTea, Aspen Pure, the Marley Beverage Company, and most recently Coco-Libre less than 30 days ago, previously had a strong presence in Colorado and the Western United States through its own DSD system and key DSD partnerships in surrounding states. Through the recent acquisitions and focusing on national expansion, the Company has closed important gaps to now have penetration across all 50 states and more than 10 countries internationally. That penetration however was typically with one brand where it may have had historical strength like Xing in the West, Marley in the Midwest and Canada, Coco-Libre in the Northeast, or Búcha in California. Now through the amalgamation under the New Age umbrella, the Company has recently been building on those footholds to gain full portfolio penetration with a stronger network of best-in-class distribution partners including:
