I'm having a lot of trouble finding out how to get in contact with liquor manufacturers in order to negotiate buying their products. It's like this information is purposely hidden. I'm in the process of applying for state and federal licenses needed to import and distribute alcohol and I've consulted with an attorney to help make sure my business model is legal (it is). I just can't find much info on how the big distributers get contracts with manufacturers. Do they just cold call the company and ask? I checked a few websites and can't get anywhere.
Specifically, I'm looking to buy European products such as Hennessy from the manufacturer and ship it to the US in large amounts (like in a shipping container).
Does anyone have any information about how these big distributers get their contracts?
