This expansion builds upon Broken Shed’s current presence in 30 U.S. markets.
“We are thrilled to join forces with Southern Glazer’s, the country’s leading wine and spirits distributor, whose impressive distribution network and commitment to excellence align seamlessly with our company values,” said Steve Bellini, President of Broken Shed Vodka. “This agreement marks a significant achievement for our brand, empowering our strategic advancement to introduce Broken Shed Vodka to a considerably broader audience and set the stage for the brand’s future growth.”
Broken Shed Vodka has experienced substantial growth since its current leadership team began distribution in U.S. markets in 2018. The brand has earned an extensive collection of awards, including being recognized by the respected industry trade publication Beverage Dynamics with a “2023 Rising Star Award” in the Growth Brand Category.
Broken Shed Vodka will begin the transition in the 21 U.S. markets covered by Southern Glazer’s distribution network on Oct. 1, with national expansion to take place over the next year.
