Phil eyeballs some of the issues on the horizon and shares insight from VBWA's Emerging Leaders program.
As we reflect on the recent VBWA/VWWA Annual Convention held this month in Ponte Vedra, Florida, I am filled with gratitude and pride...Let’s continue to build on this momentum and look ahead to a promising summer and future.
Rolling off a successful 2024 General Assembly session, we look ahead to our plans for the remaining eight months: Emerging leaders, evolving an old tax, and standing up for the wholesale tier.
We sit down with the NBWA’s David Christman, a more than 20-year veteran of the National Beer Wholesalers Association who today manages state-level affairs for the association and is a main point of contact for state wholesaler associations. They discuss a number of issues impacting every tier of the Three Tier system, from “crossover” brands (a la hard sodas and teas) to post-COVID direct-to-consumer regulations, craft beer challenges, the rise of canned cocktails and Virginia’s new self-distribution system for brewers.
