GRD Beer, Wine & Spirits is the alcohol division of Global Reserve Distribution, bringing deep Twin Cities metro relationships and real statewide reach to beer, wine, and spirits distribution across Minnesota.

We focus on building brands, not just moving cases.

Our roots run deepest in the Twin Cities metro, but we cover Minnesota border to border, giving your brand access to major national and regional chains as well as independent retailers, backed by the retail buyer relationships to support placements and growth from Rochester to Duluth.

We work in categories that move fast and leave no room for error, which means execution, compliance, and speed to market aren't optional, they're the job. That's why we're selective about who we bring on: we prioritize local and emerging brands looking for a partner who'll actually build with them, and we support out-of-state suppliers making their first move into Minnesota. Either way, we curate our portfolio on purpose. We're not trying to carry everything, we're trying to carry the right things well.

Getting a placement is just the start. Our team stays engaged after the sale, with daily retailer contact, oversight of shelf placement, and hands-on in-store support to make sure your brand actually performs once it's on the shelf. We build merchandising programs suited to the account, from large-format and high-volume retailers to independent stores, because a big chain and a corner liquor store need different kinds of attention to sell through.
