The Artisan Group is a spirits, wine and beer brokerage house established in 2014 by Chris DeLauro. Chris's background includes 16+ years of beer and wine distribution. Most of his wine knowledge comes from working with a NC based wholesaler from 2000-2008. When an opportunity was presented to work as sales & marketing manager for local brewpub Chris was up for the challenge. The first brands represented by AGBevCo were small NC distilleries. Since that time we have expanded to nationally distributed brands including wine and beer and are still launching new NC distilleries as well. We consistently receive inquires from new brands needing representation. Some of these are established brands and some are new ventures. Not every supplier fits our mold and in those cases, we help the brand owners find other fruitful distribution options. Our mission is to provide a home for small and mid-sized brands seeking to launch new products in our territory. While providing top of the line market support and brand building experience.
