Imperial Beverage

We are killing it in Michigan, due in no small part to our outstanding distributor Imperial Beverage. Obviously quality is key, but so much more goes into selling spirits: Passion, education, authenticity, support, and homework. Credit where credit is due, Imperial is a great partner. The woman in the video sells a lot of Tomas Artesanal because she is passionate, knowledgable, supports her clients and understands their needs. Thank you Imperial, your team is amazing.

Last month, we said goodbye to a LEGENDary employee. Mark was with IB for almost 28 years so we had to send him off with some swag! #CheersToALegendaryRetirement

Sure, you could manage a team for any company, but how much more fun would it be to be a leader at one of the top beverage sales companies in Michigan? This Supervisor works at our Kalamazoo Headquarters, Monday-Thursday (That's right...a 3-day weekend!)

While we patiently wait for the finished works of art, we wanted to take a moment to highlight a member of the Imperial Beverage family that is also part of the MRC Industries, Inc. community, Nate! Nate joined Imperial in 2021 and was featured in MRC’s 2021 annual report with an entire article on his successes. “Nathan quickly became a valuable employee at Imperial Beverage and received a card from his coworkers full of kind notes about how much they appreciate having him as part of their team. ‘Nate is a great employee! He is always happy when he comes in and is consistent with his output of boxes to be made and often exceeds his goal for the day,’ says Jim Dostal.” We appreciate Nate, and we are grateful to #MRC for connecting us with such a great employee!

Thrilled to announce the second release of Soft Parade Vodka! Grateful to MLive.com for the feature. #SoftParadeVodka #MichiganBusiness https://lnkd.in/dbrympGA
