GlenAllachie grows distribution in US
Speyside distillery GlenAllachie is endeavouring to expand its reach across the US after signing a new exclusive distribution deal with Impex Beverages.
GlenAllachie has agreed a US distribution deal with Impex BeveragesEffective from 1 May, the partnership will see Impex Beverages look after the importing and distribution of The Glenallachie Distillers Company’s core range of single malt Scotch whiskies and the company’s MacNair’s Lum Reek blended malt.
Both brands will be distributed in approximately 20 additional states, including Texas and Colorado.
David Keir, sales and marketing director at GlenAllachie, said: “We’re very excited about this partnership with Impex who have many years of experience building brands and I’m looking forward to working with their team growing The GlenAllachie across the USA.”
Last month, GlenAllachie launched the second batch of whiskies in its Wood Finish range, which comprised a limited edition series of single malts finished in Port, rye and Sherry casks. The whiskies will be available globally.
In March, the distillery received a £30 million (US$38m) funding package to support its international expansion plans.
